Great overview of geopolitics with a bit of western bias
Reviewed: 03-13-25
Overall, Haass did a great job presenting an overview of the current geopolitical climate from our last century. It gave a taster of brief history in each region of the world, the dynamic of world power, economics, immigration, and climate change. Hasss’s western / US bias gets in the way due to his previous work experiences working under the Bush administration.
