INTERVIEW

CONCEPTS

Just Power
The employment of a state’s soft and hard power tools in the service of justice. “Just Power” argues that the promotion of justice should be the aim of modern statecraft, not for altruistic reasons, but because it is the only sustainable way that states can promote progress and stability in a globalised world. (Neo-statecraft and Meta-geopolitics)
