MULTIDIMENSIONAL REGIONALISM IN THE MEDITERRANEAN: ACTORS AND CHALLENGES: Monograph
Synopsis
The monograph examines the main challenges and actors determining the processes of development of regionalism in the Mediterranean. The war in Ukraine is one of the on-going parameters impacted the Mediterranean region, mainly as it hosts alternative sources of natural gas and oil to reduce European countries’ dependence on Russian supplies; conflicts in Syria, Libya, and other parts of North Africa and the Middle East drive waves of migrants toward Europe’s southern borders, as a result, the Mediterranean has become a frontier for the EU; the political, economic and military realities of the Mediterranean are increasingly shaped by the USA, Russia, the EU and such regional states as Turkey, Iran and the Persian Gulf countries; the stability and prosperity of this region will be determined for decades by the ability of regional and global powers to address these interrelated challenges.
