The Changing Global Order : World Leaders Reflect
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The global order has changed so rapidly and profoundly in the last decade that no one author can do justice to the subject. To grasp the breadth and depth of the changing global order, political journalist Nathan Gardels has compiled 44 of the most provocative and influential articles and interviews to have appeared in his publications, the New Perspectives Quarterlyjournal and Global Viewpoint,a weekly column for the Los Angeles Times syndicate that has over 30 million readers in 15 languages. This collection of essays and conversations offers impressions from prime ministers, foreign news correspondents, public intellectuals, and scientists on the fate of their countries and global relations. Most notably, in a remarkable conversation which took place in a private forum in February of 1995, Bush, Mitterand, Thatcher, and Gorbachev reminisce about their respective roles in ending the Cold War, with surprisingly interesting results. Finally, in an interview with Nathan Gardels in November of 1996 Benjamin Netanyahu speaks frankly on his interpretation of the Oslo Peace Accords and the fate of Israel and Palestine. Includes interviews with: Hassan Al-Turabi, Mario Vargas Llosa, Vaclav Klaus, Anatoly Lukyanov, Aleksandr Kwasniewski, Lee Kuan Yew, Fidel Castro, Kofi Annan, Francis Fukuyama, Michael Eisner, Bill Gates, Shimon Peres, Jacques Attali and King Hussein.
