| Summary/Abstract |
The lessons drawn from the Iraq war need to be understood not to mean that there might be no more wars, for there will be, but not to repeat the mistaken preconceptions, historical analogies, and mismanagement of the approach to war and its aftermath. The world is now a very different place.

| Summary/Abstract |
Ever since the United States assumed, on behalf of the West, a leadership it had earned the old-fashioned way- one war at a time- its main European partners have questioned its goals, methods, and even its values. yet, for both the United States and the states of Europe, the crisis is defferent this time.

| Summary/Abstract |
Despite its battle fatigue, a U.S. withdrawal from the world would lead to chaos.
RAYMOND ARON CALLED THE TWENTIETH CENTURY "the century of total war," and so it was, arguably the worst ever, exceeding even the devastation created by the Thirty Years' War. As many as 175 million people were deliberately killed, whether in combat or in cold blood-so many on both sides of Europe and throughout the world that it is hard to acknowledge them all.

| Summary/Abstract |
THE UNITED STATES and Europe have a blind date with history. By 2020, decisions made about the alliance of purpose and the union of necessity built during the Cold War will leave each either more united and stronger, or more divided and weaker. In June 2016, a referendum in Britain changed the terms of its relations with the European Union, but it may also have reactivated its indispensability to its member states, and even strengthened the role of NATO as a unifying factor with the United States. Now, the thirty-four members of NATO and the EU (including twenty states, not including Britain, that belong to both) need a Transatlantic Strategic Dialogue to share strategic foresight and provide policy input for a world of increasing complexity and permanent crises.

| Summary/Abstract |
“THERE ARE three times,” wrote Saint Augustine in his Confessions, “a present of things past, a present of things present, and a present of things future.” Each is needed for contextual understanding, but gaps between them are not readily apparent. As History meanders, one moment at a time, reality catches up slowly, one step at a time—“crabwise,” as the postwar German novelist Günter Grass wrote.

| Summary/Abstract |
The twentieth century was a short century. It began late and badly, in 1914, with the megadeaths of an unexpectedly suicidal war that generated a fatally flawed peace in 1919 and set the stage for a de-humanising reprise 20 years later. Next, however, the century took an astonishing turn for the better as the United States assumed a Western leadership for which the states of Europe were no longer qualified, either on grounds of capabilities or morality. Later, the latter half of the twentieth century, inseparable from the first, proved to be a period of redemption: while Europe re-cast itself as a Union, American power forced history to change course in at least half the world, where an evil ideology was contained and ultimately defeated. When the Soviet empire and the state that had driven it collapsed in 1991, a tragic century of total wars ended early and well with widespread talk of a new world order - a US-led Western order.
