Synopsis

It's the beginning of the end of "Pax Americana," the nearly eighty years of relative peace without a World War. The world finds itself in a period of change, with increasing chaos and violence raging around the globe. It's not an accident. An "Axis of Tyranny"-a new generation of autocrats in Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea-are engaged in a struggle to subvert the global world order of the US and our allies.

Like it or not, the world is entering a new Cold War. A Cold War that can only be fought and won with deterrence. But what is deterrence exactly?

Paul Struhsaker's new book, How Hell Did We Get Here? is a comprehensive guide to this emerging new Cold War and our need to rebuild deterrence. The book unpacks the players and politics that have brought us to the brink of world war and how deterrence, the application of soft and hard power, can restore peace.

Deterrence is a complex subject. Historically, the subject of Cold War deterrence and resilience has been dealt with piecemeal, and a comprehensive overview of deterrence has not been available. The purpose of this book is to fill that void.

You will love this book if you are interested in:

  • The back story behind world events.
  • The consequences of foreign policy decisions.
  • The technology behind the military and space systems featured in today's news headlines from hotspots in Europe, the Middle East, and the South China Sea.
