Deutschland hatte sich behaglich eingerichtet in der Welt der Globalisierung - einer Welt, die friedlich zusammenzuwachsen und für uns immer sicherer zu werden schien. Doch diese Welt gibt es spätestens seit dem russischen Überfall auf die Ukraine nicht mehr. Über ein Zeitenwendchen ist die deutsche Politik bisher dennoch nicht hinausgekommen. Nach einem ersten Schock hat das Land wieder in den Friedensmodus geschaltet.

International security and American supremacy are at stake—and now is the time for the US to take action. China's global power and influence grows every day. Working from a deep sense of national identity, the Chinese Communist Party is leading its country toward what it deems "the great rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation," and executing a long-term Grand Strategy to topple over its chief adversary, the US. As China becomes increasingly repressive domestically and aggressive overseas, it threatens to upend America's global dominance at every turn.

"The Prince" is a 16th-century political treatise by the Italian diplomat and political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. From correspondence a version appears to have been distributed in 1513, using a Latin title, "De Principatibus" ("Of Principalities"). However, the printed version was not published until 1532, five years after Machiavelli's death. This was done with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII, but "long before then, in fact since the first appearance of The Prince in manuscript, controversy had swirled about his writings".

Blankenship identifies three factors that determine the severity of this burden-sharing dilemma and how it is managed: the latent military power of allies, the shared external threat environment, and the level of a patron's resource constraints. Through case studies of US alliances formed during the Cold War, he shows that a patron can mitigate the dilemma by combining assurances of protection with threats of abandonment and by exercising discretion in its burden-sharing pressure.

Americans frequently criticize US foreign policy for being overly costly and excessively militaristic. With its rising defense budgets and open-ended "forever wars," US foreign policy often appears disconnected from public opinion, reflecting the views of elites and special interests rather than the attitudes of ordinary citizens. The Commander-in-Chief Test argues that this conventional wisdom underestimates the role public opinion plays in shaping foreign policy.

Politisch und wirtschaftlich ist die demokratische Welt so schwach wie seit Jahrzehnten nicht mehr. Das Konzept "Wandel durch Handel" ist gescheitert. Vielmehr hat es Diktaturen gestärkt und Demokratien untergraben. Freie und offene Gesellschaften sind existenziell gefährdet. Der russische Einmarsch in der Ukraine, der brutale Angriff auf Israel, der wieder salonfähig gewordene Antisemitismus und die wirtschaftliche Abhängigkeit von China müssen ein Weckruf für offene Gesellschaften sein. Es braucht jetzt grundlegende Veränderungen.

In Words of War, Eric Min pulls back the curtain on when, why, and how belligerents negotiate while fighting. Of all interstate conflicts across the last two centuries, two-thirds have ended through negotiated agreement. Wartime diplomacy is thus commonly seen as a costless and mechanical process solely designed to end fighting. But as Min argues, wartime negotiations are not just peacemaking tools. They are in fact a highly strategic activity that can also help states manage, fight, and potentially win wars.
