"The war in Ukraine has altered the course of global history. These authors
explore how.
When Vladimir Putin's forces sought to conquer Ukraine in February 2022, they
did more than threaten the survival of a vulnerable democracy. The invasion
unleashed a crisis that has changed the course of world affairs. This conflict
has reshaped alliances, deepened global cleavages, and caused economic
disruptions that continue to reverberate around the globe. It has initiated the
first great-power nuclear crisis in decades and raised fundamental questions
about the sources of national power and military might in the modern age. The
outcome of the conflict will profoundly influence the international balance of
power, the relationship between democracies and autocracies, and the rules that
govern global affairs.
In
War in Ukraine, Hal Brands brings together an all-star group of analysts
to assess the conflict's origins, course, and implications and to offer their
appraisals of one of the most geopolitically consequential crises of the early
twenty-first century. Essays cover topics including the twists and turns of the
war itself, the successes and failures of US strategy, the impact of sanctions,
the future of Russia and its partnership with China, and more.
