McFaul combines in-depth historical analysis and first hand expertise to examine how the rise of autocratic powers—particularly China and Russia—challenges and reshapes the modern global order. He critiques Cold War frameworks and argues that new authoritarian threats demand innovative diplomatic and economic strategies from the democratic world, especially the United States. The narrative traces how shifting power, populist trends, and changing American foreign policy signal a crossroads, making the book both a clarion call for renewed leadership and a guide for adapting to 21st-century global disorder.
