THE RETURN OF GREAT POWERS - JIM SCIUTTO GEBUNDEN

The essential new book by CNN anchor and chief national security analyst Jim Sciutto 
identifying a new  more uncertain global order with reporting on the frontlines of power from
existing wars to looming ones across the globe. The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 dawned what
Francis Fukuyama called The End of History.” Three decades later  Jim Sciutto said on CNN’s air
as the Ukraine war began  that we are living in a 1939 moment.” History never ended—it barely
paused—and the global order as we long have known it is now gone. Powerful nations are
determined to assert dominance on the world stage. And as their push for power escalates  a new
order will affect everyone across the globe. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is a part of it  but
in reality  this power struggle impacts every corner of our world—from Helsinki to Beijing 
from Australia to the North Pole. This is a battle with many fronts: in the Arctic  in the
oceans and across the skies  on man-made islands and redrawn maps  and in tech and cyberspace.
Through globe-spanning  exclusive interviews with dozens of political  military  and
intelligence leaders  Sciutto defines our times as a return of great power conflict  a
definitive break between the post–Cold War era and an entirely new and uncertain one.” With
savvy  thorough  in-person reporting  he follows-up his 2019 bestseller  The Shadow War: Inside
Russia’s and China's Secret Operations to Defeat America  which focused on the covert tactics
of a hidden conflict. The Return of Great Powers analyzes a historic and visible shift in real
time. It details the realities of this new post–post–Cold War era  the increasingly aligned
Russian and Chinese governments  and the flashpoint of a new  global nuclear arms race. And it
poses a question: As we consider uncertain  even terrifying  outcomes  will it be possible for
the West and Russia and China to prevent a new World War?
