Everybody agrees that 11 September has changed the world, but nobody is quite sure how. This collection argues that how history judges its impact will depend on the political choices and strategies employed over the next decade. Will it be an age of fear, or an age of world community?
These essays by leading thinkers and statesmen from across the globe discuss the inevitable tension between the use of military power in the search for global security and the establishment of a rule-based world order; between the short-term realpolitik of building coalitions against terror and the values on which the long-term legitimacy of this agenda will depend.
The different authors examine how we need to rethink our strategies to relflect the changes in power, security, identity and governance in the world. Their different prescriptions map out the contours of a world community that is within our grasp.
Ehud Barak, Ulrich Beck, Tony Blair, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Malcolm Chalmers, Robert Cooper, Fred Halliday, David Held, Mary Kaldor, Mark Leonard, Kanan Makiya, Joseph Nye, Amartya Sen, Jack Straw, Fareed Zakaria.
