Description
xHow the world broke--and how a rebalancing of power will save it
The post-Cold War era is over. The liberal world order, as we have known it since the end of World War II, is dying. Multilateral cooperation is being replaced by multipolar competition and conflict. Transactions seem to matter more than international rules. The search is on for a new global framework--a rebalancing of power.
This is the 1918, 1945 or 1989 moment of our generation. We can get it wrong, as the leaders did in the aftermath of World War I. We can get it more or less right, as happened after World War II. Or we can make false assumptions about eternal peace as happened when the Cold War ended.
The next decade will determine what the world order will look like for the rest of the century. In this book, the President of Finland, Dr. Alexander Stubb, makes a compelling case that the rebalancing will happen through a "Triangle of Power" between the Global West, the Global East, and the Global South.
At the center of it all is the great power competition between the United States and China. Both are trying to forge bilateral deals and regional alliances. But at the end of the day, it will be the Global South that decides the direction--whether multilateral or multipolar--in which the world will develop.
If the Global West wants to preserve its core democratic values, it needs to adopt an approach of "values-based realism" combined with a "dignified foreign policy." The world needs more dignity, diplomacy and dialogue--and far less preaching, bullying, and monologue.
From golf rounds with President Trump to cool, calm and collected reflections in the sauna, from mediating peace in Georgia to behind-the-scenes meetings with global leaders, The Triangle of Power is a wake-up call: if the West does not listen, it will lose the 21st Century.
