The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order is an influential and controversial book on grand strategy and world futures, by the late political scientist Samuel Huntington. [1] It takes a darker view than some alternative models, such as that of Thomas P.M. Barnett in The Pentagon's New Map.[2]

Huntington's basic premise is that a number of great cultures are in unavoidable conflict.
