What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Russia and China claim to have established a "strategic partnership." This paper argues that there is little in their relationship that can be seen as "partnership", and even less that is "strategic." The author argues that, in reality, this relationship merely overlays a diplomatic agenda established by Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in the late 1980s. China's pragmatic and limited approach and Russia's domestic economic and political difficulties means that the Sino-Russian strategic partnership is unwieldy and imprecise, and complicates the still-incomplete normalisation process. Moscow and Beijing must return to building a stable, long-term relationship. In turn, Western governments and analysts need to make clearer to Russia the benefits of improved relations with China, and the position such relations occupy in a benign Asia-Pacific balance of power.
