The Grand Chessboard

American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives
Book • 1997
In 'The Grand Chessboard,' Zbigniew K. Brzezinski presents a comprehensive vision for American preeminence in the post-Cold War era.

The book emphasizes the importance of Eurasia as the central arena for global power struggles and argues that the United States must maintain its dominance in this region to ensure global primacy.

Brzezinski divides Eurasia into four critical regions—Europe, Russia, Central Asia, and East Asia—and discusses the strategic implications for American foreign policy in each.

He also addresses the challenges posed by emerging powers and the need for a balanced approach to maintain American hegemony while promoting global cooperation.
