ROMANIA – MODERATING THE POWER EQUILIBRIUM IN THE WIDER BLACK SEA REGION
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2009, Vol 30, Issue 1
Abstract
A guiding principle in international relations for the past three centuries, the balance of power has become today a sub-systemic concept. Based on the analysis of the interests and the relations of power established in the Black Sea area, this study argues that, in such difficult and complex space, stability can be achieved only through a realistic adjustment of the different interest belonging to the involved actors. Attempting to transform this region into a stable and prosperous one, Romania must first balance these interests, thus acting like an authentic moderator of the power equilibrium in the Wider Black Sea Region.
