The danger of global disorder, according to Pack, includes more than festering civil wars; even more threatening is a growing global inability to respond proactively, through global governance, to face such global threats as climate change, terrorism, and cybercrime. For Pack, this “Global Enduring Disorder” is self-reinforcing because the chaos it creates makes it more difficult for order to be restored. His ideas about the “Global Enduring Disorder” are drawn from these experiences. Despite its length, Pack’s book leaves certain questions about the “Global Enduring Disorder” unexplored.
