Sobre este artículo
Random House. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. 1987. Hardcover. 0394546741 . VG/VG condition "This volume examines the phenomenon of the rise and decline of nations. This is only one of the most recent attempts to answer a philosophical and historiographic question first asked by Pre-Socratic Ionian philosophers over 2500 years ago. The assumption that the US would be supplanted by Japan has turned out to be incorrect, and with the climatic crisis the very idea of who supplants whom may be moot." ; 9.30 X 6.30 X 1.70 inches; 677 pp pages .
Sinopsis
From the publisher: "In this wide-ranging analysis of global politics over the past five centuries, Yale historian Paul Kennedy focuses on the critical relationship of economic to military power as it affects the rise and fall of empires. Nations project their military power according to their economic resources and in defense of their broad economic interests. But, Kennedy argues, the cost of projecting that military power is more than even the largest economies can afford indefinitely, especially when new technologies and new centers of production shift economic power away from established Great Powers - hence the rise and fall of nations."
