In his 2011 book On China, his 2014 book World Order and in a 2018 interview with Financial Times, Kissinger stated that he believes China wants to restore its historic role as the Middle Kingdom and be 'the principal adviser to all humanity'.

World Order is a book that discusses exploration of global power dynamic, written by Henry Kissinger.^[1]

Summary[edit]

In World Order, Kissinger explains four systems of historic world order: the Westphalian Peace born of 17th-century Europe, the central imperium philosophy of China, the religious supremacism of political Islam, and the democratic idealism of the United States. Kissinger aims to provide a window into today’s struggling framework of international order.^[2]

Reception[edit]

Henry Kissinger

The New York Times praised the book, declaring, 'his writing functions like a powerful zoom lens, opening out to give us a panoramic appreciation of larger historical trends and patterns, then zeroing in on small details and anecdotes that vividly illustrate his theories.'^[3]

The book has also garnered positive reviews from Hillary Clinton, The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, and The Guardian, among many others.^{[4][5][6][7][8]}
