Author Jon Pelson explains how America invented cellular technology, taught China how to make the gear, and then handed them the market. Pelson shares never-before-told stories from the executives and scientists who built the industry and describes how China undercut and destroyed competing equipment makers, freeing themselves to export their nation’s network gear - and their surveillance state. He also reveals China’s successful program to purchase the support of the world’s leading political, business, and military figures in their effort to control rival nations’ networks.

"Nella mia vita di nomade non ho mai smesso la ricerca di radici. Immaginarie, costruite, conquistate. Ma indispensabili." Le austere memorie di Genova, le atmosfere nordiche di Bruxelles e le sorprese di Parigi, l'iniziazione all'Oriente in Indonesia, poi verso Ovest a respirare l'aria decadente di New York, lo spaesamento di San Francisco, a riscoprire un'armonia celeste di Pechino, i bambini del Sichuan, le case a fior d'acqua del Kerala, il destino marittimo di Tokyo, le sorgenti del Nilo... Tre oceani e quattro continenti.

After decades of peace and prosperity, the international order put in place after World War II is rapidly coming to an end. Disastrous foreign wars, global recession, the meteoric rise of China and India and the COVID pandemic have undermined the power of the West's international institutions and unleashed the forces of nationalism and protectionism. In this lucid and groundbreaking analysis, one of Britain's most experienced senior diplomats highlights the key dilemmas Britain faces.

This book investigates the reasons why the American involvement in Afghanistan was doomed to fail - and examines a chief reason for this, which was the political support in Afghanistan for the Taliban....

A trent'anni dalla fine della guerra fredda, l'equilibrio mondiale non e mai stato così a rischio. Il presidente degli Stati Uniti si è ritirato dal trattato di disarmo con la Russia e ha abbandonato unilateralmente l'accordo sul nucleare iraniano, l'Europa pesa sempre meno sullo scacchiere internazionale e rischia di disintegrarsi, la Cina prende sempre più spazio e, a causa dell'epidemia di Covid-19, una crisi economica e sanitaria senza precedenti si è abbattuta su tutto il mondo.

Poles Apart is based on interviews with leaders on both sides of the Atlantic and the latest academic research. It explains why we are so tribal, the advantages and disadvantages of being so, its often unknown effects on our politics, businesses and social groups, and what we can do to halt excessive polarisation. It's a brilliantly insightful - and very practical - book on a timeless subject that also happens to be very topical. It acts as the ideal primer for those who have ever had to negotiate or resolve a conflict - in other words, all of us.

For decades, the Navy has stood sentinel over crucial waterways, ensuring safe passage of goods from nearly all nations. The result is the longest phase of peace on the waters since the Phoenicians, with rising living standards, more (total) jobs, and the dramatic decline of poverty in Asia. But these prosperous times could be at an end. Today China is building warships at an extraordinary pace. India, Japan, Vietnam, and Europe are responding with more fighting ships. What will result from China’s rising naval might, particularly in the South China Sea?

Over the last decade, Azeem Azhar - writer, technologist and creator of the Exponential View platform - has become our leading thinker on how technology is transforming business, politics and society. Now, Azhar offers a holistic way to think about the effects of new tech. Our society, Azhar argues, is afflicted by an 'exponential gap' - the gulf between the growing pace of technological change, and our institutions' struggle to keep up.

Defense expert Seth Jones argues that the US is woefully unprepared for the future of global competition. While America has focused on building fighter jets, missiles, and conventional warfighting capabilities, its three principal rivals - Russia, Iran, and China - have increasingly adopted irregular warfare: cyber attacks, the use of proxy forces, propaganda, espionage, and disinformation to undermine American power. Jones details the key steps the United States must take to alter how it thinks about - and engages in - competition before it is too late.

In the three decades since the end of the Cold War, global leaders have been integrating the world's economy, transport and communications, breaking down borders in the hope that it would make war impossible. In doing so, they have unwittingly created a formidable arsenal of weapons for new kinds of conflict and the motivation to keep fighting. Rising tensions in global politics are not a bump in the road - they are part of the paving. Troublingly, we are now seeing rising conflict at every level, from individuals on social media all the way up to stand-offs between nation states.

International relations affects everyone's lives: their security, economic well-being, rights and freedoms, and the environment they share. Recently we have seen the transformation from a world of empires to today's world of sovereign states, which are enmeshed in a complex array of international institutions, all exercising degrees of political authority. The new global organization of political authority has far-reaching consequences. This audiobook untangles this complex world, providing an accessible framework for understanding the contours of global political change.

Après "Les Routes de la Soie", un regard aiguisé sur les profonds bouleversements du monde d'aujourd'hui. Les nouveaux défis posés à l'Occident deviennent toujours plus complexes.

Pendant ce temps, sur les antiques Routes de la Soie souffle un vent d'espoir.

Pour comprendre et décrypter le monde de demain, voici le rapport captivant fourni par le renseignement américain. Comment les Etats-Unis exerceront-ils leur leadership dans les vingt prochaines années ? La Russie demeurera-t-elle agressive si son économie faiblit ? Comment l'Europe affrontera-t-elle sa crise d'identité et la montée des populismes ?

Carla Del Ponte fordert Gerechtigkeit. Wo wird das Völkerrecht aktuell gebrochen? Und welche Möglichkeiten hätte die UN einzugreifen? Wie und von wem wird Einfluss genommen auf Entscheidungen des Sicherheitsrates? Und macht sich die UN zu einem willfährigen Instrument mächtiger Länder? Carla Del Ponte, viele Jahre Chefanklägerin des Internationalen Strafgerichtshofes, berichtet von ihrer jahrelangen Arbeit als hochrangige UNO-Diplomatin und fordert in ihrem flammenden Plädoyer die Durchsetzung des Völkerrechts, notwendige Reformen der UN sowie eine aktive Rolle der EU.

The Chinese government has more control over more wealth than any other government in world history. With the Communist Party controlling the "commanding heights" of the world's second-largest economy, China appears ideally structured to pursue economic statecraft, using economic resources to advance its foreign policy goals. Yet as this book shows, domestic complications frequently constrain Chinese leaders. They have responded with a distinctive approach to economic statecraft: orchestration.

The American Empire is finished and will soon become another cautionary tale, tossed upon the trash heap of history, and destroyed by the very same societal issues that plagued the many former empires that share similar fates. It did not have to end this way, but when the most devious and ruthless members of a society are tasked with running the system, the outcome can hardly be in dispute.

Tim Marshall's global best seller Prisoners of Geography showed how every nation’s choices are limited by mountains, rivers, seas and concrete. Since then, the geography hasn’t changed. But the world has. In this revelatory new book, Marshall explores 10 regions that are set to shape global politics in a new age of great-power rivalry: Australia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Greece, Turkey, the Sahel, Ethiopia, Spain and space.

Private spies are influencing our elections, shaping the future of Hollywood, effecting government policies and the fortunes of companies. More deviously, they are also peering into our personal lives as never before, using off-the shelf technology to listen to our phone calls, monitor our emails and decide what we see on social media. Spooked takes us on a journey into a secret billion-dollar industry in which information is currency and loyalties are for sale.
