The authors are convinced that policy makers should be no less attentive to the influence of continuity than to that of change. They survey the evolution of the international system from the emergence of the modern state in the 17th century's balance of power system whose principles still determine many of the usages of modern diplomacy. They discover, however, that this classical system has been profoundly altered by a 20th century dipolomatic revolution: a complex of political, economic, military, and ideological factors that has destroyed the homogeneity of the international community and confronted diplomats with new problems and the need to find new expedients to deal with them. The effects of this revolution on the abortive experiment in system-making between the two world wars are described in detail, and the authors demonstrate how the modalities of the Cold War and the principles of the Nixon-Kissingere detent strategy were attempts to overcome them. Contents in Three Parts: International System from the 17th Century to the Present, Maintaining the System Problems of Force and Diplomacy, and Ethical Imperatives and Foreign Policy.
