As part of the Order from Chaos project, the Brookings Foreign Policy program has launched Geopolitics in the 21st Century, a series of books from the Foreign Policy Program at Brookings and Brookings Institution Press that explores the ideas and strategies that can guide critical countries and key leaders as they shape, defend, and renovate the current international liberal order. The books in this series not only analyze the important issues and dynamics currently at work on the world stage, they also put forward specific policy recommendations that will guide the world’s leaders and policymakers, especially as the United States prepares for a new administration.
