If I were on this jury, I'd pick @attackerman's Reign of Terror. Arguably the most important english language international affairs book of the decade. https://twitter.com/gelberprize/status/1480917510346227717

I'm speaking with @Ali_Wyne today about his much-discussed new book: "America's Great Power Opportunity" in which he argues that US grand strategy should not be reactive + organized around great power competition. What do you want to learn?
