Peace, Democracy, and Free Markets in the Twenty-First Century, his masterpiece, has been translated into seven languages, including Chinese and Arabic. “The book's goal, according to Mandelbaum, was to give a framework for comprehending all of the 21st century's worldwide challenges, from globalization to terrorism, Chinese succession politics to Latin American economic difficulties. It was dubbed "a great book" by the Financial Times, and Tom Friedman complimented it. Mandelbaum contributes a piece to Newsday on a regular basis. His knowledge of global issues stems from his time working for the US government. He worked on national security matters in the Office of the Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs.
