Following the collapse of the Soviet Union and the emergence of the United States as the world's sole superpower, neutrality was seen by many as a relic of the Cold War. However, the arrival of rising powers on the scene and the gradual shift towards multipolarity as countries like Russia and China assert their influence and challenge the US-dominated international order has in turn revived neutrality in its various forms. This book begins with a range of chapters examining the 'old neutrals' of Europe via contemporary Austrian and Swiss neutrality, the decline and end of Swedish and Finnish neutrality, and the resilience of Irish neutrality. Later chapters deal with the emergence of 'new neutrals' via examinations of Vietnamese 'bamboo diplomacy, ' Israel's efforts to balance its relations with Washington and Moscow, and Oman's non-interventionist foreign policy. As the range of chapters show, the role of neutrality - and its perception or misperceptions - remain vital in understanding contemporary geopolitics and international relations. Edited by: Naman Karl-Thomas Habtom. Contributors: Roby C. Barrett, Karen Devine, Pascal Lottaz, Nguyen Khac Giang, Erik Noreen, Jussi Pakkasvirta, Liudmila Samarskaia, Roxanna Sjöstedt, Leah Sherwood, Hanna Tuominen.
