| Summary/Abstract |
There have been few people in top government positions whose moral and political authority did not diminish after their resignation, and still fewer have had the ear of political leaders. Among contemporary political thinkers, such figures include former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, the father of the Chinese economic miracle Deng Xiaoping, and the founding father of Singapore Lee Kuan Yew. Yevgeny Primakov, of course, belongs to the same group.
