DESCRIPTION:The Russian offensive against Ukraine that began in February 2
 022 signaled the end of a three-decade-long period of great-power peace a
 nd the beginning of an era marked by a new Cold War or even resurrecting 
 the possibility of a hot war. China’s goal of achieving global hegemony i
 n the coming decades\, particularly through the Belt and Road Initiative 
 (BRI)\, asymmetric technological superiority\, and the militarization of 
 the South China Sea and the Indian Ocean\, is generating conflict\, thoug
 h of a different kind than that seen during the Cold War. Meanwhile\, U.S
 . President Donald Trump has launched a crusade against the international
  economic and political order by imposing very high tariffs on friends an
 d foes alike in the hope of obtaining primacy. All the great powers are s
 eeking “spheres of influence\,” undercutting norms of sovereignty and ter
 ritorial integrity. How do resurgent great-power conflicts affect peace a
 nd peaceful change in regions such as Europe\, Asia\, and the Middle East
 ? What new tools do we need to explain patterns of regional order and the
  impact of systemic rivalries on these orders and vice versa?[b] \n\nBio[
