The primary focus of this handbook is to evaluate ideas at the global level, the possibility for the peaceful accommodation of rising powers, and at the regional level, exploring how and when regions transform into conflictual orders or, alternatively, offer models for cooperation that might emulated globally. First, at the global level, change related to power transitions and the peaceful status accommodation of rising powers, as well as the creation of a just world order, often produces much conflict and violence. Second, the change in regional orders from conflict to cooperation and the possibilities of producing security communities where stable peace exists and member-states do not envision or prepare for war to settle disputes. Third, domestically the positive change might seem to flow from improvements to state capacity and democratic order that allow states to have a positive impact on international and regional orders through greater contributions to international cooperation.
