The Great Power coalition of the early 19th century succeeded in
keeping the peace among the major states of England, France,
Prussia, Russia, and Austria. For the last century and a half,
however, no truly encompassing coalition has emerged, and in its
absence the 20th century was plagued by world wars and peripheral
conflicts. Only now, at the outset of the 21st century, is a new
Great Power coalition possible. This book examines the prospect of
a Great Power coalition that would be sustained by the development
of 'overlapping international clubs.' The new set of Great Powers
the United States, Japan, the European Union, China, and Russia can
be increasingly bound together through a combination of status and
economic incentives, international norms and regimes, and the
emulation of national and regional 'best practices.' The
construction of such a coalition presents special problems and
opportunities for the United States. In the years ahead, America
will need to adjust its policies to bring China and Russia into
membership of such a group or see them progressively adopt
recalcitrant and antagonistic attitudes toward world affairs.
