Description

Cold Peace: Avoiding the New Cold War by Michael W. Doyle. The end of the first Cold War in 1990 brought with it a sense of hope and possibility for global cooperation. However, as renowned international relations expert Michael Doyle argues, we now face a new era of conflict that threatens to undermine our chances of addressing pressing global challenges such as climate change and pandemics. A new Cold War is emerging, driven by the trilateral axes of Russia, the US, and China, exacerbated by cyber warfare and propaganda. The devastating invasion of Ukraine serves as a stark reminder of the costs of this new conflict. Yet, there are also reasons for optimism - shared global interest in prosperity and protecting the planet from environmental disaster. Doyle proposes an elegant set of accords and non-subversion pacts that could lead to détente between nations, potentially saving the world. While the future remains uncertain, Doyle's book offers a nuanced analysis of the current state of international relations and potential paths forward for reducing tensions and promoting cooperation.
