The violent conflict in Ukraine triggered by Russia, China’s drift away from a “peaceful rise” strategy and America’s near abandonment of liberal leadership have created deep uncertainty. This book project asks: Under what conditions do great powers abandon or significantly alter relatively peaceful grand strategies for reasons of status? It examines how strategic interaction between great powers—and the pivotal role of domestic coalitions—shapes expectations of status reciprocity and recognition leading to great power conflicts.
