Synopsis

Explore a bold sociological take on how war starts, and how a new system could end it forever.

The Great Cycle presents a sweeping analysis of war as a world-spanning phenomenon, arguing that it arises from how societies organize power, economy, and migration. This abridgement surveys key ideas about monopolies, the movement of people, and a practical plan for peace.

The book frames war as a sociological problem, not just a political one. It traces how laws, markets, and social structures shape nations’ choices in and after conflict, offering a ground-up approach to prevent future wars.

• An overview of the Great Cycle and its seven social monopolies shaping history
• How migration policy and the protectionist mindset influence global conflict
• The Call System as a proposed economic remedy to end war
• Thoughtful discussion on postwar society and shared world prosperity

Ideal for readers of history, political theory, and global affairs seeking a provocative, systems-based view of war and peace.
