Do great leaders make history? Or are they compelled to act by
historical circumstance? This debate has remained unresolved since
Thomas Carlyle and Karl Marx framed it in the mid-nineteenth
century, yet implicit answers inform our policies and our views of
history. In this book, Professor Bear F. Braumoeller argues
persuasively that both perspectives are correct: leaders shape the
main material and ideological forces of history that subsequently
constrain and compel them. His studies of the Congress of Vienna,
the interwar period, and the end of the Cold War illustrate this
dynamic, and the data he marshals provide systematic evidence that
leaders both shape and are constrained by the structure of the
international system.
