Book Talk | Surviving Chaos: Geopolitics When the Rules Fail

Today, many of the rules, norms, and structures that have shaped international affairs for decades are crumbling under the weight of accumulating challenges. In an attempt to make sense of this “Un-Order,” its trajectory, and its implications for the US and China, Mark Leonard has written Surviving Chaos: Geopolitics When the Rules Fail. The book argues that using the framework of a new divide in the international landscape between big-thinking “architects” and the more adaptive “artisans” will be essential to understanding contemporary power and its application.
