Ten Steps to Prevent World War Three

20.75

We are in a cold war, but one unlike anything we’ve seen before. Influence, ignorance and ideology have been weaponised, with USA and China fighting on the global battleground to push their rival visions of the future. The world is splintering into two competing spheres of influence and it’s no exaggeration to say that we are potentially looking down the barrel of a gun towards global armageddon. Western leaders can no longer be complacent or passive, allowing foreign actors chip away at our political infrastructure and national security. The stakes could not be higher, but there is a path towards a brighter future. ‘Ten Steps to Prevent World War Three’ draws on a blend of big ideas, personal narrative, lessons from history and geopolitical insights to uncover the mindset and strategies that can build a peaceful global future.
