I'm just going to think out loud for a little while about Russia and it's territorial thinking. I belive that there might actually be something to it. In the days when problems are hoarding up on globalization and a green wave is becoming something of a Tsunami I can't help but to marvel over Russia's (unintentional?) foresightedness. One very probable characteristic of the green wave and increased resistance towards globalization, would be the regionalization of trade-patterns.
This would mean that even though information is abundant, connections and interests outside the local areas would probably loose much importance. For even though the green problem is a global problem part of the solution lies in the efficiency that closeness will provide.
The regionalization might thus tilt the powerbalance in Russias favour granting it much more influence over it's direct neighbors as global influence and oversight ebbs (until a new global system, hopefully one with more friendly characteristics than what we've seen so far, takes over)
