Zusammenfassung

Qatar is an example of how a small state with significant natural resources has been able to survive in an environment where it is surrounded by major regional powers with antagonistic interests. Qataris have not only been able to secure the existence of their state but have also become important interlocutors in the resolution of conflicts taking place within the new global order. The country has risen in the international system by applying actions that go beyond what might be termed soft power and could be described as subtle power. In this way, Qatar has shaped the international system in its favour, inducing other actors to align with its interests or otherwise discredit them.
