As conflicts erupt around the globe, Europe must reorganize itself to maintain peace and stability to survive in the multipolar âwolf world.â

The return of great power rivalry and geoeconomic competition has unsettled the global balance of power. The hegemon itself has declared the liberal world order obsolete. In the United States, the once-dominant mix of neoconservative foreign, neoliberal economic, and left-identitarian cultural policies has lost its grip. Focusing on three primary theatres of geopolitical conflict in Europe, East Asia, and the Middle East, Geopolitical Conflict and Strategy in the Wolf World outlines the strategic challenges Europe faces as the global balance of power moves away from a U.S.-dominated order.

As Pax Americana fades, violent conflicts erupt. Wars rage in Europe and the Middle East, while tensions in East Asia threaten to ignite another. What order can stabilize this wolf world? Drawing on two decades of experience as a political analyst in Asia, advising governments and industry, author Marc Saxer reveals the histories and philosophies shaping rival concepts of order, providing a roadmap for the negotiations ahead. Providing a critical evaluation of the decline of liberal order, the book examines how Europe can foster peace and stability amid the erosion of the normative framework for peacebuilding and the paralysis of multilateral conflict-resolution institutions. Saxer proposes how Europe can contribute to a new, rules-based international order, navigating the complexities of an asymmetrically multipolar world, and explores alternative concepts of global order, from historical empires to modern geopolitical frameworks.
