It questions whether non-state actors can act as foreign policy makers and if the contemporary role of non-state actors constitutes a theoretical challenge to foreign policy. Chapters demonstrate the impact of non-state entities through the lenses of their direct role as decision-makers, with examples drawn from the African continent, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia. Arguing for the necessity of approaching foreign policy in a broader frame, beyond the scope of the state and the individual, the book fills a gap in the literature and creates a closer nexus between area studies and foreign policy. This volume will be of interest to both academics and practitioners across the fields of international relations, foreign policy analysis, and area studies.Non-State Actors in International Relations,2730-9932International relationsRegionalismForeign PolicyRegionalismInternational Relations TheoryInternational relations.Regionalism.Foreign Policy.Regionalism.International Relations Theory.327.1Charountaki Marianna475069Kourtelis Christos1734367Irrera Daniela960396MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910845495203321Non-State Actors and Foreign Policy Agency4151206UNINA
