What has happened when they have come into contact with each other? How have they balanced legitimacy and power at different times? What is the condition of each in our contemporary world and how are they shaping relations between states now?To answer these questions Henry Kissinger draws upon a lifetime's historical study and unmatched experience as a world statesman His account is shot through with observations about how historical change takes place how some leaders shape their times and others fail to do so and how far states can stray from the ideas which define them World Order is a masterpiece of narrative analysis and portraits of great historical actors that only Henry Kissinger could have written"
