SynopsisA decade after the cold war ended, policy makers and academics foresaw a new era of peace and prosperity, an era in which democracy and open trade would herald the "end of history." The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, sadly shattered these idyllic illusions, and John Mearsheimer's masterful new book explains why these harmonious visions remain utopian. To Mearsheimer, great power politics are tragic because the anarchy of the international system requires states to seek dominance at one another's expense, dooming even peaceful nations to a relentless power struggle. Mearsheimer illuminates his theory of offensive realism through a sweeping survey of modern great power struggles and reflects on the bleak prospects for peace in Europe and northeast Asia, arguing that the United States's security competition with a rising China will intensify regardless of "engagement" policies. "This is the definitive work on offensive realism." "Choice"", "A superb book....Mearsheimer has made a significant contribution to our understanding of the behavior of great powers."--The National Interest, Barry R.

  • International Order theorized as Balances of Power between Rival State Alliances

    University of Chicago political science professor, former US Air Force officer, West Point, USC and Cornell graduate with a PhD in government, presents a ‘realist’ theory explaining international order in terms of balances of power between rival state alliances, driven by competition to achieve regional hegemony, triggering economic and military assertion motivated by escalating concerns for national survival.
