With China’s emergence as a peer nuclear power to the United States and Russia, the world is on the cusp of a tripolar nuclear order. Cold War risks are being dangerously recast.

Robert Litwak’s Tripolar Instability examines how these risks can be managed amidst the Ukraine war and heightened tensions over Taiwan.
Join the Wilson Center on June 27 for a conversation between the author and David Sanger. Free books will be available for signing after the event.
