Summary, etc. With the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Cold War in 1990, the world suddenly felt a safer place. The triumph of the West promised a new era of peace and stability accompanied by an economic revolution based on new technology.<br/>In 1995 Robert Harvey published The Return of the Strong: The Drift to Global Disorder. Reviews called it alarmist and out of tune with the mood of the times for suggesting that the rise of ethnic nationalism, the globalisation of capitalism and a series of humanitarian and security crises signalled a drift towards a new world crisis. 'Harvey hopes to stop change dead in its digital tracks by creating a crisis that will give the Cold War ruling class the clout to leash an economic revolution that can't be stopped... Harvey sees us on the road to 1914,' wrote Michael Vlahos in the TLS.<br/>In the wake of September 11, Harvey has revised his analysis of the dangers facing today's world and added far-reaching proposals for the reform of global security. In the first three parts he outlines the rise of the USA to its dominant position as the world's first 'megapower', describes the sources of instability that create global disorder and threaten world peace and the dangers inherent in the globalisation of capitalism free from political control. The fourth and final part outlines reforms and actions that western democracies, particularly the USA, must undertake.<br/>Includes Harvey's up to the minute take on the US/Iraq stand-off.
