Summary:

International order is easy to take for granted, but it shapes our world. Governing arrangements allow us to eat food imported from other countries, live safely from nuclear war, travel to foreign cities, profit from our savings, and much else. Yet, the textbook explanation for how order changes-that the most powerful country sets up and sustains new rules of international order after winning a major war-fails to explain a lot of events. Instead of thinking of 'the' international order as a single thing, this book explains how it operates in parts, and often changes in peacetime. It sheds light on a huge range of topics, from US-China rivalry to climate change.
