Great Power Games

Great Power Games is an authoritative account of the world order in flux, from the ashes of the Second World War to the fractured present. For decades, the United States and its Western allies shaped the global system through treaties, institutions and a carefully constructed rules-based order. That edifice now shows deep cracks. Hot wars rage on multiple fronts, the West is riven by internal turmoil and America, under the disruptive presidency of Donald Trump, has abandoned the very frameworks it once created.
