“The Godfather has always been a joy to watch; however, given the present changes in the world’s power structure, the movie becomes a startlingly useful metaphor for the strategic problems of our times.”
“For the Godfather was more than just the most successful mafioso of his era; he has come to epitomize a power structure that has stood the test of time.”
“It will neither be wholly dominated by one great empire nor be the chessboard on which many countries with roughly equal power vie to establish their dominance.”
