So long as man has fought wars, he has sought ways to prevent conflict. Force and Statecraft is a concise survey, from the emergence of the modern state in the seventeenth century to the present, of the success and failure of these efforts. The authors show how the 20th century diplomatic revolution has challenged the principles on which last centurys balance of power system was built. The revised Third Edition brings this argument up to date with expanded chapters, revised discussions and case studies, and entirely new material reflecting the altered political landscape of the 1990s, with chapters on the Gulf War, the collapse of communism, and the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
