Description

Beneath the millennial shine of political optimism and technological advance lurk a set of deepuncertainties: global inequality is growing; weapons of mass destruction are spreading; strident assertions of identity divide peoples and states. Overall, there is a marked lack of effective coordination and reduced confidence in the power of people, ideas and democratic processes to achieve change. This important book by a leading observer of international relations provides acritical but cautiously optimistic assessment of the state and prospects of the world at 2000.
