Aprašymas

A bracing, provocative assessment of American foreign policy over the past two decades, an era that includes 9/11, the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the rise of Putin’s Russia, increased Chinese aggression, and more—from the bestselling author of The Revenge of Geography.

Drawing on decades of firsthand experience as a foreign correspondent and military embed for The Atlantic, and deep reading that ranges from the lessons of Thucydides and Sun Tzu to contemporary outcomes in the Middle East, Robert D. Kaplan makes a powerful case for what timeless principles and factors should shape America’s role in the world: a respect for the limits of Western-style democracy; a delineation between American interests versus American values; an awareness of the psychological toll of warfare; a projection of military power via a strong navy; and much more.

In a series of vivid and clear-eyed assessments, renowned foreign policy analyst Kaplan describes an increasingly unstable world—and how American strategy should adapt accordingly.

Advance praise for The Return of Marco Polo’s World

“A characteristically thoughtful and provocative collection of essays from Robert D. Kaplan, born of his own Marco Polo–like wanderings and rich grasp of history. Elegant and compelling, these prescient pieces are a valuable guide to the endlessly complicated geopolitics of Eurasia, and what it all means for Americans in the decades ahead.”—Ambassador William J. Burns, president, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former deputy secretary of state

“When it comes to geopolitics and the analysis of world affairs, Robert D. Kaplan is the best in the business. These essays are not only astonishing in their breadth, depth and range, but beautifully crafted and accessible.”—John Bew, professor at the war studies department, King’s College London, author of Realpolitik: A History and Castlereagh: A Life

“Offering a refreshingly realist perspective in a turbulent time, Robert D. Kaplan’s collection brilliantly illustrates the costs of war and underscores the urgent need for U.S. diplomatic deftness to preserve stability within an increasingly interconnected global order. The Return of Marco Polo’s World is an invaluable resource for U.S. policy makers and members of the general public seeking to learn from history and a solid basis for sound American foreign policy.”—Ambassador Robert Blackwill, Henry A. Kissinger Senior Fellow for U.S. Foreign Policy, Council on Foreign Relations
