World Order is book that discussed exploration of global power dynamic, written by Henry Kissinger.[1]

Summary

In World Order, Kissinger explains four systems of historic world order: the Westphalian Peace born of 17th-century Europe, the central imperium philosophy of China, the religious supremacism of political Islam, and the democratic idealism of the United States. Mr. Kissinger aims to provide a window into today’s struggling framework of international order.[2]

Reception

The New York Times praised the book declaring, "his writing functions like a powerful zoom lens, opening out to give us a panoramic appreciation of larger historical trends and patterns, then zeroing in on small details and anecdotes that vividly illustrate his theories."[3]

The book has also garnered positive reviews from Hillary Clinton, The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, The Guardian, among many others.[4][5][6][7][8]
