In "Leadership and the Rise of Great Powers," Yan Xuetong challenges Western theories by linking national power to moral leadership. Praised in diplomatic circles, this provocative 2019 work uses classical Chinese philosophy to explain why China's rise won't trigger another Cold War - but something entirely different.

What truly determines which nations rise to greatness and which fall from power? While conventional wisdom points to economic strength or military capabilities, the answer lies somewhere far more nuanced-in the quality of political leadership. Throughout history, nations with similar resources have achieved dramatically different outcomes based primarily on the decisions their leaders made. This perspective forms the foundation of Yan Xuetong's groundbreaking analysis that bridges ancient Chinese philosophy with modern international relations theory. The most fascinating aspect of this approach is how it explains historical puzzles that economic determinism cannot. Why did Rome collapse despite its vast resources? Why did Britain's empire fade while America's influence grew? The answer consistently points to leadership quality-specifically, the moral dimension of leadership that builds trust and credibility in international affairs. When Barack Obama kept Yan's earlier work on his desk during discussions about China's rise, he recognized this crucial insight: material power alone cannot sustain international influence without the moral authority that comes from trustworthy leadership.
