""For centuries, the balance of power has been the central precept of international politics, so what happens when one country's overwhelming primacy makes restraining alliances seem obsolete? This collection of top-quality essays by premier scholars offers lively debates over alternatives like 'soft balancing' and multilateral institutional constraints. *Primacy and Its Discontents* is ideal for getting students thinking in the classroom.""--Jack Snyder, Robert and Renée Belfer Professor of International Relations, Columbia University, author of *Electing to Fight: Why Emerging Democracies Go to War*
