In the twenty-five years after 1989, the world enjoyed the deepest peace in history. In The Rise and Fall of Peace on Earth, the eminent foreign policy scholar Michael Mandelbaum examines that remarkable quarter century, describing how and why the peace was established and then fell apart. To be sure, wars took place in this era, but less frequently and on a far smaller scale than in previous periods. Mandelbaum argues that the widespread peace ended because three major countries -- Vladimir Putin's Russia in Europe, Xi Jinping's China in East Asia, and the Shia clerics' Iran in the Middle East -- put an end to it with aggressive nationalist policies aimed at overturning the prevailing political arrangements in their respective regions. The three had a common motive: their need to survive in a democratic age with their countries' prospects for economic growth uncertain. Mandelbaum further argues that the key to the return of peace lies in the advent of genuine democracy, including free elections and the protection of religious, economic, and political liberty. Yet, since recent history has shown that democracy cannot be imposed from the outside, The Rise and Fall of Peace on Earth has a dual message: while the world has a formula for peace, there is no way to ensure that all countries will embrace it.Binding Type: Hardcover

Great sturdy shelf, install can be a bit challenging
Style: 3 Tier with Tower Bar, Style: 3 Tier with Tower Bar
The shelf is great and does exactly what I wanted it to do. I will note that the instructions indicate you’re supposed to use a 6 mm drillbit to install the anchors which comes out to about a 15/64 size. I would recommend a quarter inch drillbit because I was really struggling to get those anchors in there.
Several folks also said that it’s easiest to install with two people, but you don’t need two people if you have some way to prop the piece up while you’re marking the hole placements to drill (and I would definitely recommend having a level on it the entire time you’re working to make sure that it’s correct).
Lastly, it is easiest to put it together first, and then mark the drill holes, put the piece aside and drill and install the anchors, and then screw it in. I will also caution folks to not overtighten the pipe connections, because the pipes will end up in a wonky direction in the end.
Overall I am extremely happy with this piece and certainly for the price!!

Easy to put together. Super cute in any room
Style: 3 Tier
I fell in love with these when we were at our kids home and we installed them for them. The way my daughter-in-law decorated them, I loved it. I ordered 3 of them. I ordered a two tier for my office, because the 3 tier was too big, and i have the 3 tier in my bathroom. They look so dang cute and finishes up the wall in those areas. They are sturdy and strong. Super easy to put together. No tools required, except when you need to hang them. It will require two people to hang them. You can put them together in less than 5 minutes. Not super heavy but strong. strong to hold several things on them. I had no parts missing. Everything came packaged very nicely. Very functional. I would definitely recommend.

Shelf
Style: 2-tier Vintage Industrial
I’m giving a 4 star due to installation. Screws were too small for the anchors. Shelf is very nice and looks great . Took little more time than what should have been an easy hang .
