- catalog abstract "The myths that underlay and obscured the real-politik essence of the postwar Old World Order are first addressed. The New World Order is then assessed through in-depth coverage of the Gulf War, the Yugoslav secession/succession wars, and the conflicts and security dilemmas of post-Soviet Eurasia - the crises that have chartered its essence, and set the parameters for turn-of-the-Century international relations. The New World Order that emerges is as manifestly a creature of real-politik as the Old. In exposing the myths of our minds this book clarifies the historical record, illuminates the security dynamics that continue to define our world, and discusses the changes that would warrant a true New World Order label - the agenda for change that world leaders may yet be compelled to embrace.".
