Destined for War
Can America and China Escape Thucydides's Trap?
Graham Allison
"Destined for War" by Graham Allison is a thought-provoking read that explores the potential for conflict between two major world powers, China and the United States. The book draws inspiration from Thucydides's Trap, which suggests that when a rising power challenges an established one, war is inevitable. Allison expertly blends history and current events to explain the concept and analyzes the steps that could be taken to prevent catastrophic consequences. A must-read for anyone interested in international affairs and politics.
