The liberal world order that emerged after the Second World War and expanded triumphantly following the Cold War is unravelling. Multilateral cooperation is giving way to multipolar rivalry and conflict. Global norms are eroding. What comes next will define the rest of the century; the search is on for a new global framework a rebalancing of power.In The Triangle of Power, Finnish President Alexander Stubb argues that we are living through a hinge moment in history, akin to 1918, 1945 or 1989. A new international system is taking shape, driven by three major forces: the Global West, the Global East and the Global South. At the centre is the escalating competition between the United States and China, as both try to forge bilateral deals and regional alliances, but it is the Global South that will ultimately determine whether the future tilts toward cooperation or fragmentation.Drawing on decades at the front lines of diplomacy, and blending personal insight with political and academic experience, Stubb delivers a passionate call for values-based realism and dignified foreign policy and warns that unless the West learns to listen, it will lose its place in the world it once led.

Desire becomes most dangerous when it is observed.In Power Plays Tales From the Edge of Desire, Volume III, Cassian Ward expands his exploration of erotic power into darker, more intimate territorywhere control is exercised not only through touch, but through gaze, silence, and psychological authority.This volume presents a collection of explicit erotic short stories centered on moments of imbalance: a night porter who halts time between floors, a dancer disciplined on an empty stage, a mechanic who takes payment in surrender, a librarian who enforces rules in the dark, a paramedic whose care blurs into command, and a watcher who turns surveillance into ritual.Each story is driven by consensual power exchange, slow-burn dominance, and the unsettling intimacy of being seen, claimed, and transformed. Cassian Wards prose is atmospheric, deliberate, and psychologically chargeddesigned for readers who crave erotic fiction that lingers beyond the act itself.Power Plays Volume III is not about romance in the traditional sense.It is about tension. Authority. And the moment when desire chooses to obey.For readers of dark romance, BDSM erotica, voyeuristic power dynamics, and psychologically intense erotic fiction. Adults only (18+).

The hunt for this small thing, among the countless lost things, becomes an absurdist quest through time and space: from the earliest human societies to the advent of AI.Told, shared and mythologised by our narrator, along with a wild cast of dreamers, philosophers, poets, rebels and optimists, Seven is an extraordinary, uplifting journey through an ever darkening world.
