Offering an interpretative framework for thought and action, Cohen-Tanugi suggests how we should approach our new "multipolar" world - a world that is anything but the balanced and harmonious system many welcomed as a desirable alternative to the "American Empire."" "His argument is that economic globalization exists in a complex dialectic with the traditional geopolitics it has, ironically, helped to revive. This tension has created an ambivalent world that requires democracies to operate in two realms: the realm of economic integration and multilateralism - or peaceful, astrategic, "postmodern" internationalism - and the more traditional, even regressive realm of confrontation between national and regional strategies of power fought against a background of terrorism, civil war, and nuclear proliferation."--BOOK JACKET.
