Vladimir Putin's rise and imperialist reinvention, along with Xi Jinping's ascendancy and autocratic tendencies, led to the invasion of Ukraine and mounting tensions over Taiwan and trade. This book addresses these questions and offers a more peaceful world. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14 February 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: The Westbourne Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 sparked fears of a new Cold War, as argued by Gilbert Achcar in his timely new study. According to Achcar, the Cold War has been ongoing since the turn of the century, with the US seeking to solidify its position as the last remaining superpower in the 1990s by alienating Russia and China. This strategy led to the resurgence of old tensions and the outbreak of the Ukrainian crisis, with Vladimir Putin's rise and imperialist reinvention culminating in the invasion of Ukraine. Similarly, Xi Jinping's ascendancy and increasingly autocratic tendencies have raised concerns about tensions over Taiwan and trade. The question remains whether this was inevitable or if there are opportunities for a more peaceful world. This essential book by Achcar addresses these questions and provides insights into the complex dynamics of international relations in the twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 sparked fears of a new Cold War, as argued by Gilbert Achcar in his timely new study.
