Thought-provoking and well worth reading, the Times Literary Supplement has shortlisted the book for the Parliamentary Book Awards. After decades of peace and prosperity, the international order established after World War II is rapidly coming to an end. Disastrous foreign wars, global recession, the meteoric rise of China and India, and the COVID pandemic have weakened the power of the West's international institutions and unleashed the forces of nationalism and protectionism.
In this lucid and groundbreaking analysis, one of Britain's most experienced senior diplomats highlights the key dilemmas Britain faces, from trade to security, arguing that international cooperation and solidarity are the surest ways to prosper in a world more dangerous than ever.
The book explores the challenges posed by the rise of authoritarianism, the threat of nuclear proliferation, and the ongoing refugee crisis. It also examines the role of the United Nations and other international organizations in addressing these issues.
The author argues that the West must work together to address these challenges, rather than resorting to isolationism or unilateralism. He emphasizes the importance of promoting human rights, democracy, and the rule of law, and of building strong alliances with other countries to promote stability and security.
The book is a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about the future of the international order and the role of the United Kingdom in shaping it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in international relations, politics, and security.
