"’Written in the interval between 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq, the book offers a rich variety of insights into the evolving nature of the new international system - one where ""state terror"" contends with ""anti-state terror, but with no clear end in sight""...The book is notable for including a broad presentation of European and Russian views. It is a useful study for anyone trying to gain a longer-term perspective on today's swirling events.’ Professor David P. Calleo, The Johns Hopkins University, USA"
