Andrew Williams places the debate about New World Orders within the historical process and major turning points of the 20th century. The discussion of New World Orders (NWO) since the fall of the Berlin Wall has gone through various phases, linked either to declared political agendas (eg Bush's NWO linked to a new role for the UN and the US), or to the events (the Gulf War) or intellectual events (The "End of History Debate"). There has emerged a need to place this debate historically. Coverage is both historical and thematic, with consideration of the NWOs of 1918-1919, 1944-47, and 1989-1992. Themes and processes covered include reconstruction, security "architectures", self-determination, human rights and globalization.
