Introduction to Security Studies

Think about the possible application of the concept of ‘balance of power' in relation to the geopolitical consequences of the Covid-19 pandemics. Is it possible to talk about balance of power before or after the pandemics? What has changed in the world system because of the global outbreak? Or were there no changes? (Give your opinion based on quality argumentation.)

Think the answer through well before you start writing. Write so that the result is a comprehensive, clearly structured view that will show your ability of conceptual thinking and creative approach to the application of theoretical starting points for a specific security problem.
