What if the greatest threat to global peace isn’t war itself-but the illusion of strategic superiority?In Global Hegemony: A Strategic Illusion, Dr. Arnouk delivers a searing, deeply researched, and powerfully written account of how the post-Cold War world, once filled with the promise of cooperation and collective security, veered instead toward mistrust, military encroachment, and the unraveling of strategic stability.At the heart of this book lies a broken promise-made in 1990, in the hushed halls of the Kremlin. Western leaders, including U.S. Secretary of State James Baker and German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, assured Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand 'one inch eastward' beyond reunified Germany. But history took another path.Drawing from declassified documents, diplomatic cables, private memos, and public speeches, Dr. Arnouk presents a gripping narrative of how those early assurances evaporated-replaced by decades of expansionism, rising nuclear tensions, and shattered arms control frameworks. He reveals how NATO’s transformation from a regional defence pact of 12 into a sprawling alliance of 32 has brought it to Russia’s doorstep, reigniting fears that were never truly extinguished after the Cold War.From the fall of the Berlin Wall to the rise of new global flashpoints, Global Hegemony exposes the widening rift between rhetoric and reality in Western foreign policy. Dr. Arnouk guides readers through the evolution-and erosion-of trust, spotlighting how treaties like the INF, START, and the Non-Proliferation Treaty were undermined by strategic miscalculations and geopolitical hubris.More than a historical retelling, this is a bold and urgent examination of the fragile foundations upon which modern security has been built. It questions the dominant narratives of 'defence' and 'freedom,' asking whether the very architecture of post-Cold War order has led us, step by step, into a new era of confrontation.Insightful, provocative, and unflinchingly honest, this book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the roots of today’s geopolitical turmoil-and the illusions that continue to drive it.Whether you’re a student of international relations, a policymaker, a military strategist, or a concerned global citizen, Global Hegemony: A Strategic Illusion will challenge what you think you know-and leave you questioning what comes next.
