Prof. John Mearsheimer: Aggressive Realism Driving the World Toward a Third World War

Professor John Mearsheimer warns that the current global trajectory, fueled by aggressive realism, is pushing the world dangerously close to a third world war. He argues that great power competition—particularly between the U.S., China, and Russia—is escalating due to strategic miscalculations and a zero-sum mindset. Mearsheimer believes that unchecked pursuit of dominance will lead to devastating consequences unless global leaders choose diplomacy over confrontation. The stakes, he emphasizes, have never been higher.
