[A] most important and perceptive assessment of the political and economic future of the world. As always with Wallerstein's work, you do not have to agree with him to find him enormously thought-provoking. --Goran Therborn, Director, Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study in the Social Sciences, Uppsala More and more books on international relations are published every year. Only a few of them deserved to be remembered. Alternatives is one of those. It is a delight to have deep historical perspective used to explain recent events. ...Wallerstein shows that even in foreign affairs generosity, morality, cleverness, and realism are compatible. --Pascal Boniface, Director of the Institute for International Relations and Strategy, Paris
