We live in an explosive world. Trump is blowing up political order. Xi Jinping is scrambling the economy. And Putin is redrawing the map of Europe. At a time when every crisis bleeds into the next—from pandemics and wars to climate shocks and AI revolutions—the old rules of global order are collapsing.

Mark Leonard reveals how geopolitics is being rewritten in an age of "Un-Order," where no one agrees on the rules, and even the concept of order itself is up for debate. Drawing on years of conversations with leaders and thinkers from Beijing to Washington, Leonard argues that we are witnessing a new divide in international politics between the grand "architects" who try to build a stable global system and the nimble "artisans" who adapt, improvise, and survive amidst disruption. China, he shows, has embraced the artisan's mindset, while Europe and the West cling to the fading certainties of the architects.

Part analysis, part manifesto, Surviving Chaos offers a bold new framework for understanding power in the twenty-first century—and a call for leaders to stop defending yesterday's world and start learning how to thrive in tomorrow's.
