Synopsis
Robert D. Kaplan offers a sharp analysis of U.S. foreign policy and global instability over the last two decades. Anchored by a new Pentagon-commissioned essay, he examines the shifting power dynamics among China, Eurasia, and America. Kaplan explores how China's proposed Silk Road mirrors Marco Polo's historic journey, and how this impacts the balance of power as Europe fragments and Eurasia consolidates. This collection of essays provides a blueprint for understanding the evolving geopolitical landscape.
