Economics need to change - now more than ever! With Exploring Economics, we strengthen alternative economic approaches and counter mainstream economics with a critical and pluralistic vision of economic education. We also provide background analyses on current economic debates to strengthen a critical economic discourse.
Unfortunately, we are running out of money to continue our work.
With a small contribution you can help Exploring Economics to stay online. Thank you!

Putin Is Creating the Multipolar World He (Thought He) Wanted

Is the Cold War division back with the US-EU on the one and China-Russia on the other side? The article argues that things are more complicated, as each of the country (compounds) has economic and political ties outside of its power bloc. It reads the Chinese reactions to the Russian invasion into the Ukraine as showing that rather a multipolar world order is in place, though at a somewhat precarious state.
Comment from our editors:
The authors of the short paper make the interesting observation that there is too much at stake for China to move into a one-way alliance with Russia at the current moment.
