Download or read book The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order written by Samuel P. Huntington and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-05-31 with total page 555 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic study of post-Cold War international relations, more relevant than ever in today’s geopolitical climate—with a foreword by Zbigniew Brzezinski. Since its initial publication in 1996, The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order has become one of the most influential books ever written about foreign affairs. Samuel Huntington explains how clashes between civilizations pose the greatest threat to world peace, but also how an international order based on civilizations is the best safeguard against war. The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order explains how the population explosion in Muslim countries and the economic rise of East Asia have changed global politics. These developments challenge Western dominance, promote opposition to supposedly “universal” Western ideals, and intensify inter-civilization conflict over such issues as nuclear proliferation, immigration, human rights, and democracy. In his incisive analysis, Huntington offers a strategy for the West to preserve its unique culture and emphasizes the need for people everywhere to learn to coexist in a complex, multipolar, multi-civilizational world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Ancient World, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Earliest Records to the Fall of the Western Empire Such a work, to be really useful, must be condensed into a moderate compass; else the powers Of the writer would be frit tered away, and the attention of the reader wearied out, by an overwhelming bulk, filled up with microscopic details. The more striking facts of history, - the rise and fall of empires, - the achievements of warriors and heroes, - the struggles of peoples for their rights and freedom, - the conflict between priestcraft and religious liberty, - must needs stand out on the canvas of such a picture with the prominence they claim in the world itself. But they will not divert our attention from the more quiet and influ ential working of science and art, social progress and individual thought, - the living seed sown, and the fruit borne, in the field broken up by those outward changes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the World, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Reign of Alexander to That of Augustus, Comprehending the Latter Ages of European Greece, and the History of the Greek Kingdoms in Asia and Africa, From Their Foundation to Their Destruction; With a Preliminary Survey of Alexander's Conquests, An After the example of the First of historians, in point not only of time but of merit, I have inquired, as he does on nearly a similar occasionik, who they were, those ancient and once illu strions nations subdued and long governed by the Greeks and Macedonians: in what characteristic particulars they either agreed with or difl'ered from each other: what had been their pub suits, and what were their attainments. Through my respectful adherence to a model, the nearest of any to perfection, my readers will proceed easily from the known to the unknown; and the history of Greece, the country to which we are indebted for our general ac quaintance with antiquity, will naturally expand into the history of the Eastern world, and of those remote regions of the South and West which gradually fell within the sphere either of its military exertion or of its commercial intercourse.
