| Abstract: | Soft power has become a widely studied, highly debated, and consistently contested concept in international relations, yet much of the scholarship has traditionally focused on major powers. Sarina Theys’ latest book challenges this dominant perspective by offering a compelling analysis of how Bhutan and Qatar – two small actors with contrasting political and economic profiles – exercise influence on the international stage.
