The Clash of Civilizations?

In this book, Huntington expands on his 1993 thesis that future wars will be fought not between countries, but between cultures.

He argues that the primary axis of conflict in the post–Cold War world will be along cultural lines, with different civilizations, such as Western, Islamic, and Sinic, becoming increasingly significant in analyzing potential conflicts.

Huntington also discusses the shift of economic, military, and political power from the West to other civilizations and critiques the Western belief in the universality of its values and political systems.
