Item description from seller

Sixty years after the 1961 Belgrade Conference of Non-Aligned Countries, the bipolar geopolitical order of the world has disappeared in the past 30 years; if the count starts at the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. Yet, the Non-Aligned Movement as an alternative to bipolarism continues to operate. It is the largest grouping of states worldwide after the United Nations. 120 state members of the Movement continue to periodically organise summits involving their heads of state or of government.

Over this period, the share of Asia in world industrial production jumped from a miniscule 4 per cent to more than 40 per cent.
