With the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, warnings about a new Cold War proliferated. In fact, argues Gilbert Achcar, the New Cold War has been ongoing since the turn of the century.

These questions and many others are addressed in this essential book by one of the most astute and seasoned analysts of international relations.
