This monograph assesses the role of small states in a multipolar world. It argues that multipolarity implies the presence of several centers of power which will provide the opportunity for small states to move from one center of power to the other and/or to engage in a sort of geopolitical gamesmanship. Using the case of Belarus the paper illustrates how a small country can move between regional powers; while at the same time engage with more distant countries such as Iran and China. The case also demonstrates the increasing role of Asia in the geopolitical arrangements now and certainly in the years to come.
