This book by Paul Kennedy analyzes the last 500 years of world history, examining how nations that became great powers eventually declined as their growth slowed and their defense spending increased. Kennedy explains how clever or short-sighted policy decisions can exacerbate or mitigate this process. The book concludes with an analysis of the current situation of the United States, the Soviet Union, the European Economic Community, Japan, and China.
