In Warrior Politics, the esteemed journalist and analyst Robert D. Kaplan explores the wisdom of the ages for answers for today?s leaders. While the modern world may seem more complex and dangerous than ever before, Kaplan writes from a deeper historical perspective to reveal how little things actually change. Indeed, as Kaplan shows us, we can look to history?s most influential thinkers, who would have understood and known how to navigate today?s dangerous political waters.

Drawing on the timeless work of Sun Tzu, Thucydides, Machiavelli, Hobbes, among others, Kaplan argues that in a world of unstable states and an uncertain future, it is increasingly imperative to wrest from the past what we need to arm ourselves for the road ahead. Wide-ranging and accessible, Warrior Politics is a bracing book with an increasingly important message that challenges readers to see the world as it is, not as they would like it to be.

OUTSTANDING!

I read Mr. Kaplan's book in 2004 on a flight to the west coast---then turned to the first page and re-read on the return flight---it's that good. Mr. Kaplan takes a realistic view of the world as it is, using history as a guide. This book would be ideal for someone new to strategy (strateegery) or an old hand. The author connects the dots and makes clear that we should pay more attention to what other world actors do, than what they say.
Highly recommended.

the anti chomsky

beyond the so-called intellectualism of the Chomsky left, the media hacks, the hate America fifth column,this book is as real as it gets......utopianism is dead, humanistic interventions on a manic level is retarded......people will die,more and more people will die, but dont blame americ, blame their 12th century breeding habits and ancien religion of death(Islam)....the only thing Kaplan is guilty of is marking the Serbs as the aggressors....what of Tudjmans ethnic cleansing of the Kraijina(300,000 Serbs dont warrant a Clintonian bombing against Zagreb---or is it only that Kaplan is an Arabist???What of the KLas brutal murders, 2,000 of secular kosovars and Serbs...before Belgrades intervention????come on, Serbia will be purified of all guilt....albanian muslims are neo-fascists..........trust me.......
