Description
Losing Control: Global Security in the Twenty-first Century by Paul Rogers is a thought-provoking analysis of global insecurities and their implications for world order. Written over two decades ago, this book predicted several major events, including the 9/11 attacks and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Asia. In this revised edition, Paul Rogers expands on his original analysis, highlighting growing inequality and unsustainability as key drivers of global insecurity. He argues that the coming decades will see a showdown between a world ravaged by environmental degradation and a possible new world order rooted in justice and peace. This book offers a sharp and timely assessment of the challenges facing global security, making it an essential read for anyone interested in international relations, politics, and the future of humanity.
