Promotional Information

"A really impressive collection of articles and authors helping to better understand a multipolar world -- and not only through U.S. eyes -- this volume will be both a guidebook to current security dilemmas and an inspiring invitation to new discussions and debates." Vladimir Orlov , founding director, Center for Policy Studies (PIR Center), Moscow "Alexander Lennon and The Washington Quarterly have managed to gather an impressive collection of essays from some of the best experts in the field. As the United States seeks to reassess its place and role in the world, Global Powers in the 21st Century will be a precious guide for the next US administration." Bruno Tertrais , senior research fellow, Fondation pour la Recherche Strategique (FRS), Paris "An extraordinary collection of essays that examines the rise of new states in the international arena and asks penetrating questions about what this new distribution of power might mean for future peace and stability. It is a must read for anyone determined to understand the multi-polarity that lurks in the future." Kurt Campbell , CEO and cofounder, the Center for a New American Security (CNAS) "Compiling insights from some of the leading thinkers in their fields, Global Powers in the 21st Century is truly a valuable and far-reaching piece of scholarship toward grasping the diverse forces that will be shaping the shifting global order in years to come." Yoichi Funabashi , editor-in-chief and columnist, Asahi Shimbun, Tokyo "The book is about the ongoing shifts in economic and political power that foretell a much different world -- a world characterized by a greater distribution of power, but also by new uncertainties." Brahma Chellaney , professor of strategic studies, Center for Policy Research, New Delhi
