On September 22, 2022, the Reimagining World Order (RWO) research community at Princeton University (PIIRS) hosted Professor Paul Kennedy (Yale University) for this year's inagural meeting of its World Order Colloquium. In this talk, Professor Kennedy revisited some of the themes from his classic work "The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers".
Professor Kennedy is J. Richardson Dilworth Professor of History and director of International Security Studies at Yale University. He is the author or editor of more than twenty books. His best-known work, "The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers", provoked intense debate on its publication thirty-five years ago and has been translated into more than twenty languages. In 1991, Kennedy edited a collection entitled "Grand Strategies in War and Peace". He helped draft the Ford Foundation-sponsored report issued in 1995, "The United Nations in Its Second Half-Century", which was prepared for the fiftieth anniversary of the UN. His 2006 book "The Parliament of Men" contemplates the past and future of the United Nations. His 2013 book, "Engineers of Victory: The Problem Solvers Who Turned the Tide in the Second World War", is history through the eyes of problem-solvers during the Second World War. His latest book, "Victory at Sea: Naval Power and the Transformation of the Global Order in World War II" (2022), is now available for purchase online and in bookstores.
