This incisive study of the evolving world order argues that seven countries have changed the world during the twentieth century and predicts their continued centrality in the twenty-first. . Will the world of the twenty-first century be dominated by global companies, ethnic strife, or rogue tyrants with weapons of mass destruction? This definitive volume argues convincingly that the answer depends on the actions of the worlds great powers, who will continue to set the rules affecting globalization, culture, and pariah regimes. Will the world of the twenty-first century be dominated by global companies, ethnic strife, or rogue tyrants? This definitive volume argues convincingly that the answer depends on the actions of the worlds great powers, which will continue to set the rules affecting globalization, culture, and pariah regimes. In A Centurys Journey , seven influential scholars trace the global strategies of the worlds most powerful countries during the past 100 years. Through authoritative chapters on each great power, readers will learn how these countries redefined their interests in response to momentous changes and reshaped the world so that it bears only slight resemblance to the world of 1900. The scholars and their areas of expertise are Professors Robert A. Pastor (United States), Stanley Hoffman of Harvard University (France), Josef Joffe, Editor of Suddeutsche Zeitung (Germany), Robert Legvold of Columbia University (Soviet Union/Russia), Robert J. Lieber of Georgetown University (Great Britain), Michael Oksenberg of Stanford University (China), and Kenneth Pyle of the University of Washington (Japan).
