Do they challenge the international order? Why do some countries but not others become rising powers? Why Nations Rise answers these questions and shows that some countries rise not just because they develop the military and economic power to do so but because they develop particular narratives about how to become a great power in the style of the great power du jour. These active rising powers accept the prevalent norms of the international order in order to become great powers. On the other hand, countries which have military and economic power but not these narratives do not rise enough to become great powers - they stay reticent powers. This book examines the narratives in historical (the United States, the Netherlands, Meiji Japan) and contemporary (Cold War Japan, post-Cold War China and India) cases to show patterns of active and reticent rising powers. It ends with lessons for how to understand two rising powers today, China and India"-- 4aGreat powersxHistory. 4aWorld politicsy19th century. 4aWorld politicsy20th century. 4aWorld politicsy21st century. 2lcccBK 00104070aPNLIBbPNLIBcGENd2021-06-17oJZ1310 .M55 2021pPNLIB21062345r2021-06-17w2021-06-17yBK c2532d2532
