Abstract

Throughout the history of human society a close relationship has existed between the dynamic strategists and their leaders. It is a relationship essential to the prosperity of nations and civilisations. But it is a relationship that has broken down during the last quarter of the twentieth century. By the 1980s, governments of the Western world had transformed themselves from strategic leaders into crisis makers, and by the end of the century many had emerged triumphant over the strategists. The crisis makers have become the antistrategists of the developed world. Yet their triumph is hollow. They now preside over a fibrillating world – a world destined for collapse unless the role of strategic leadership is rediscovered.
