The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order

First published after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Samuel P. Huntington's The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order presciently anticipated the realignment of countries across the globe according to cultural spheres of influence or "civilizations." Incisive and provocative, the book brilliantly analyzes global politics to explain how civilizations have replaced ideologies as the driving force of geopolitics. Now a classic work of international affairs, it is as indispensable to our understanding of American foreign policy today as the day it was published.
