Title
The Inevitability Of Tragedy: Henry Kissinger And His World,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
A New Portrait Of Henry Kissinger Focusing On The Fundamental Ideas Underlying His Policies: Realism, Balance Of Power, And National Interest.Few Public Officials Have Provoked Such Intense Controversy As Henry Kissinger. During His Time In The Nixon And Ford Administrations, He Came To Be Admired And Hated In Equal Measure. Notoriously, He Believed That Foreign Affairs Ought To Be Based Primarily On The Power Relationships Of A Situation, Not Simply On Ethics. He Went So Far As To Argue That Under Certain Circumstances America Had To Protect Its National Interests Even If That Meant Repressing Other Countries Attempts At Democracy. For This Reason, Many Today On Both The Right And Left Dismiss Him As A Latterday Machiavelli, Ignoring The Breadth And Complexity Of His Thought.With The Inevitability Of Tragedy, Barry Gewen Corrects This Shallow View, Presenting The Fascinating Story Of Kissingers Development As Both A Strategist And An Intellectual And Examining His Unique Role In Government Through His Ideas. It Analyzes His Contentious Policies In Vietnam And Chile, Guided By A Fresh Understanding Of His Definition Of Realism, The Belief That World Politics Is Based On An Inevitable, Tragic Competition For Power. Crucially, Gewen Places Kissingers Pessimistic Thought In A European Context. He Considers How Kissinger Was Deeply Impacted By His Experience As A Refugee From Nazi Germany, And Explores The Links Between His Notions Of Power And Those Of His Mentor, Hans Morgenthauthe Father Of Realismas Well As Those Of Two Other Germanjewish Migrs Who Shared His Concerns About The Weaknesses Of Democracy: Leo Strauss And Hannah Arendt. The Inevitability Of Tragedy Offers A Thoughtful Perspective On The Origins Of Kissingers Sober Worldview And Argues That A Reconsideration Of His Career Is Essential At A Time When American Foreign Policy Lacks Direction. 8 Pages Of Illustrations
