That yields an international power hierarchy: middle powers, regional powers, great powers, superpowers, and perhaps, hyper-power.Military Power: power especially power projection capability.Economic Power: usually assumed fungible into military power. Its not just GDP that matters; productivity and efficiency are crucial as is capacity to utilize and continuously develop higher technologiesIR Lecture 20Security/ Military Security/ Information Security In “The Net”5 Questions: Concerning Security: What are core values?
