  • Wealth and the Good Society

    David P CalleoARTICLESurvival2014

    In reminding us that unbounded wealth is dangerous both to liberty and to capitalism itself, Thomas Piketty's Capital does us a great favour. But the timidity of his remedy makes a credible solution elusive

  • Europe and America in a New Century

  • Europe's Franco-German Engine

    David P Calleo, Eric R StaalBOOKEurope's Franco-German Engine2010

    Throughout the postwar era a special relationship between France and Germany has often been the catalyst for European integration. The two countries have achieved jointly the leadership that neither could sustain alone. However, the Soviet collapse has presented them with a new agenda of problems. German unification has resurrected old geopolitical fears and has had disruptive economic consequences. Central European states are struggling to trans…

  • Follies of Power: America's Unipolar Fantasy

    Open AccessDavid P CalleoBOOKFollies of Power2009

    The imagination of America's political elites is dominated by a unipolar vision, according to which the world is dominated by the United States. But the real world is increasingly plural, and others instinctively fear and resist the American vision. Chapters 2 and 3 of this book look at the disastrous consequences of the vision at work - in the Middle East and in Europe. Chapters 4, 5, and 6 assess the limits of American power. Chapter 7 discusse…

  • The Tyranny of False Vision: America's Unipolar Fantasy

    David P CalleoARTICLESurvival2008

    For the past two decades, the American political imagination has been possessed by a hazardous geopolitical vision; the United States is defined as the dominant power in a closely integrated and ‘unipolar’ international system. A century of history has done much to encourage this view. Americans have trouble realising how revolutionary and threatening their unipolar vision can appear to others. A world system dominated by one superpower is a bold…

  • The Broken West

    David P CalleoARTICLESurvival2004

    Deep political fissures have opened in the West. Contending visions of the future have arisen on each side of the Atlantic. America, driven by its outsize military and economic strength, has developed a unipolar, hegemonic vision of the future. Europe pursues its own self-sustaining union of nation states that points towards a pluralist world order that is multipolar, balanced and multilateral. The future of the West, and perhaps of the world, wi…

    David P Calleo, D CalleoARTICLESurvival1999

    The formation of a European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) constitutes the single most important event in European and transatlantic politics since the Soviet Union's demise. There is a strong case that the euro is likely to succeed, and that its success will push the European Union (EU) towards rounding out its commercial and financial power with more effective and autonomous collective diplomatic and military capabilities. As the EU grows in…
