Organização para cooperação de Xangai e a construção da multipolaridade pela China

Abstract

The concentration of power by one or more actors in the international system and changes in the polar nature of the global order have always been central themes for the field of study of International Affairs. This debate takes on new contours at the beginning of the 21st century with the economic rise of Asia and the Emerging Powers. From China, especially, a multipolar global order emerges. In this context, the objective of this work is to understand the characteristics that mark this multipolar order, as well as the performance of Chinese Foreign Policy in favor of this order over the years. To go deeper into these phenomena, we will look more specifically at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, a fundamental institution for Beijing's interests in Asia. We will navigate among diverse bibliographies that focus on global order transformation, China’s Foreign policies and Shanghai Cooperation Organization, starting from theoretical and historical points of view. As a result, an analysis of the SCO role in the development of a multipolar world by China
