1989 heralded a unique prospect for an enduring global peace, as harsh ideological divisions and conflicts began to be resolved. Now, three decades on, that peace has been lost. With war in Ukraine and increasing tensions between China, Russia, and the West, great power politics once again dominates the world stage. But could it have been different? Richard Sakwa shows how the years before the first mass invasion of Ukraine represented a hiatus in conflict rather than a lasting accord—and how, since then, we have been in a 'Second Cold War'.

In Cuban Revelations, Marc Frank offers a first-hand account of daily life in Cuba at the turn of the 21st century, the start of a new and dramatic epoch for islanders and the Cuban diaspora. A US-born journalist who has called Havana home for almost a quarter century, Frank observed in person the best days of the revolution, the fall of the Soviet Bloc, the great depression of the 1990s, the stepping aside of Fidel Castro, and the reforms now being devised by his brother.

Chang believes it is time to take a page from Ronald Reagan’s playbook and work to bring down the enemy: the Communist Party. The Communist Party often talks about “win-win” solutions, but as its actions make clear, it believes there can be only one survivor, either the People’s Republic of China or the United States of America. China has a plan to destroy America. Does America have a plan to defend itself?

Par un effet loupe, mondialisation et nouvelles technologies ont accéléré le temps et rétréci la planète. Chaque convulsion du monde nous parvient désormais en direct. Mais qu'elles soient de nature économique, écologique, politique, religieuse ou identitaire, les crises n'ont cessé de jalonner l'histoire. Et rien n'a davantage stimulé l'intelligence humaine que ces périodes de transition, vouées à renverser les modèles du passé.

The world is a better place than it used to be. People are healthier, wealthier, and live longer. Yet the escapes from destitution by so many has left gaping inequalities between people and nations. In The Great Escape, Angus Deaton - one of the foremost experts on economic development and on poverty - tells the remarkable story of how, beginning 250 years ago, some parts of the world experienced sustained progress, opening up gaps and setting the stage for today's disproportionately unequal world.

Destiny offers the vision of a positive future for humanity and a practical blueprint for how to achieve a sustainable, peaceful, and just global community. At this most important moment in human history, technology is giving us the power to remake the world into a garden of plenty. At the same time, we face dark, existential crises—climate catastrophe, the continuing threat of nuclear weapons, and futile reliance on achieving “security” through military escalation, as examples.

Quantos países existem no mundo? A resposta é: cerca de duzentos. Agora pense no ano de 2150. Quantos haverá? Qual futuro o mapa-múndi de hoje sugere? A imagem mais conhecida do mapa-múndi, a que é ensinada desde a escola, mostra territórios delimitados por convenções. Cada pedaço de terra com sua própria bandeira, hino, traje e culinária típicas. Mas, como defende o historiador canadense Quinn Slobodian, é um erro ver a divisão do mundo de maneira uniforme e estática.

C'è un conflitto di cui sentiamo parlare da sempre, e sempre più spesso. Una guerra che seguiamo da lontano, ma che continua a influenzare il nostro presente da vicino, perché rivela con chiarezza quanto il mondo stia attraversando una fase di profondo smarrimento. Elia Milani, corrispondente di Mediaset da Gerusalemme, lo sa bene: da otto anni descrive in diretta ciò che accade in Israele e Palestina. In questo libro, senza abbandonare lo sguardo attento del cronista, affianca al reportage un racconto più personale.

The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919) was one of the most important documents to come out of World War I – specifically the period of the Armistice and the subsequent settlement negotiations. And, a century on, it remains of particular relevance to our times – an uncompromising and forthright analysis of how international diplomacy can be suffused by personalities, prejudices, personal ambition and outright, uncontrolled feelings of revenge.

Who will defend Europe? The answer should be obvious: Europe should be able to defend itself. Yet, for decades, most of the continent enjoyed a defense holiday, outsourcing protection to the United States while banking an increasingly illusory 'peace dividend'. Now, after three decades of reducing armed forces and drawing down defense industries, Europe finds itself close to unprotected—while Russia is intent on continuing its war of expansion, and the United States is distracted and divided.

In the past five years, Israel has mounted three major assaults on the 1.8 million Palestinians trapped behind its blockade of the Gaza Strip. Taken together, Operation Cast Lead (2008-9), Operation Pillar of Defense (2012), and Operation Protective Edge (2014) have resulted in the deaths of some 3,700 Palestinians. Meanwhile a total of 90 Israelis were killed in the invasions. On the face of it, this succession of vastly disproportionate attacks has often seemed frenzied and pathological.
