Berridge, Hague Journal of Diplomacy [Kupchan] is one of those rare Americans with a genuinely global view of international relations...

[I]n substance it is a clear and compelling one that, in addition, takes one into exotic politico-historic case study lore that you probably never knew before. I recommend it. -- Marc E. Nicholson, AmericanDiplomacy.org Kupchan's theoretical enterprise is as ambitious as the scope of his empirical inquiry is impressive... Kupchan gives his readers a lot of material to ponder. -- Shiping Tang, World Politics
