description: In The Ideas That Conquered the Wold, Michael Mandelbaum describes the uneven spread (over the past two centuries) of peace, democracy, and free markets around the world. And he assesses the prospects for these ideas in the years to come, giving particular attention to the United States, which bears the greatest responsibility for protecting and promoting them, and to Russia, China, and the Middle East, where their fate will affect the rest of the world.
