To be fair, I’m reading “The New Leviathans” by Gray right now. It includes the ideas of Turchin in its analysis of the “decline of liberalism” and I’m intrigued (and concerned) by the arguments. But I read “The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers” when in came out in 1987, found it convincing, and yet practically everything it predicted went wrong within 5 years.
