Nevertheless, few studies have investigated how the leading state in the international system responds to rising powers in peripheral regions-actors that are not yet and might never become great powers but that are still increasing their strength, extending their influence, and trying to reorder their corner of the world. In the Hegemon's Shadow fills this gap. Evan Braden Montgomery draws on different strands of realist theory to develop a novel framework that explains why leading states have accommodated some rising regional powers but opposed others. Montgomery examines the interaction between two factors: the type of local order that a leading state prefers and the type of local power shift that appears to be taking place. The first captures a leading state's main interest in a peripheral region and serves as the baseline for its evaluation of any changes in the status quo. Would the leading state like to see a balance of power rather than a preponderance of power, does it favor primacy over parity instead, or is it impartial between these alternatives? The second indicates how a local power shift is likely to unfold. In particular, which regional order is an emerging power trying to create and does a leading state expect it to succeed? Montgomery tests his arguments by analyzing Great Britain's efforts to manage the rise of Egypt, the Confederacy, and Japan during the nineteenth century and the United States' efforts to manage the emergence of India and Iraq during the twentieth century.Cornell studies in security affairs.HegemonyGreat powersForeign relationsGreat powersHistory19th centuryGreat powersHistory20th centuryHegemony.Great powersForeign relations.Great powersHistoryGreat powersHistory327.114Montgomery Evan Braden741507MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798105903321In the Hegemon's shadow1472017UNINA04475oam 2200937zu 450 99620418800331620230124181733.01-280-55950-097866105595033-527-60305-0(CKB)1000000000019382(SSID)ssj0000290040(PQKBManifestationID)11226998(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000290040(PQKBWorkID)10403736(PQKB)10055426(MiAaPQ)EBC5247770(Au-PeEL)EBL5247770(CaONFJC)MIL55950(OCoLC)58557574(EXLCZ)99100000000001938220160829d2003 uy engurcnu||||||||txtccrBiological reaction engineering : dynamic modelling fundamentals with simulation examples2nd ed.[Place of publication not identified]Wiley VCH20031 online resource (517 pages)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph3-527-30759-1 Here, the modeling of dynamic biological engineering processes is presented in a highly understandable way using a unique combination of simplified fundamental theory and direct hands-on computer simulation. Throughout, the mathematics is kept to a minimum, yet the 60 simulation examples supplied on a CD-ROM with this second edition illustrate almost every aspect of biological engineering science. Many of the examples are taken from the authors' own research, and each is described in detail, including the model equations. The programs are written in the modern user-friendly simulation language Berkeley Madonna, which runs on both Windows PC and Power-Macintosh computers. Madonna solves models comprising many ordinary differential equations using very simple programming, yet is so powerful that the model parameters may be defined as "sliders", which allow the effect of their change on the model behaviour to be seen almost immediately. Users may include data for curve fitting, and perform sensitivity or multiple runs. The results can be seen simultaneously on multiple-graph windows or by using overlays - resulting in a tremendous learning effect.; The authors' extensive experience, both in university teaching and international courses, is reflected in this well-balanced presentation, which is suitable for teachers, students, biochemists and engineers. The result is a greater understanding of the formulation and use of mass balances and kinetics for biological reaction engineering, written in a most stimulating manner.EngineeringTechnologyChemistryBiological Science DisciplinesInvestigative TechniquesComputing MethodologiesComputer SimulationBiochemistryBiotechnologyModels, TheoreticalChemical EngineeringNatural Science DisciplinesInformation ScienceTechnology, Industry, and AgricultureAnalytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and EquipmentTechnology, Industry, AgricultureDisciplines and OccupationsMechanical EngineeringHILCCBioengineeringHILCCEngineering & Applied SciencesHILCCEngineeringTechnologyChemistryBiological Science DisciplinesInvestigative TechniquesComputing MethodologiesComputer SimulationBiochemistryBiotechnologyModels, TheoreticalChemical EngineeringNatural Science DisciplinesInformation ScienceTechnology, Industry, and AgricultureAnalytical, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Techniques and EquipmentTechnology, Industry, AgricultureDisciplines and OccupationsMechanical EngineeringBioengineeringEngineering & Applied Sciences660.6Dunn Irving JPQKBBOOK996204188003316Biological reaction engineering1031887UNISA
