Power Transition and Global International Order

    Power is the main reason to rule over the world. The concept of power transition is started when a country has risen in economic growth and gained military power and reaches the level of its challenger,and also had its place at the top of the international order and the hunger for power led the country to reach the maximum extent. This is due to the fact when a country gets power and establishes a great economic system, it wants to get in the top position in the international order and also save its interest in the world.The global international order has seen several power transitions from empire to empire, region to region,and then country to country. The study is a qualitative analysis of past events of power transition in the global world. It also focused on the causes and prospects of power transition in the past and the future,respectively.
