“9·11事件”震憾世界，引起各国政治家深入思考世界秩序今后的发展趋势。俄罗斯政治家、外交家普里马科夫的专著《9·11后的世界》于2002年11月首版发行，受到广泛关注。之后，世界又发生了一些重大事件。普里马科夫本人也有直接参与。如在美对伊动武前夕，他作为普京总统特使出访伊拉克，劝说萨达姆采取灵活态度。伊拉克战争发生后，他根据形势发展变化，对全书作了百余处增补和修订，于2003年4月再版发行，更名为《9·11和入侵伊拉克后的世界》。

如果说，全球化使得世界更加复杂，那么，作者们也期望通过这本书能够使读者对这个世界的认知立即更为清晰，就像在一个信息流动中形成的图像定格。当然，世界变迁的速度也将使我们不停地重新审视这个世界，不断地深化自己的理解。本书设计成一种工具箱形式：采用对开双面结构，内容简洁、不仅是本图册，更是个真正的工具箱：由一位制图专家、一位地理学家和两位政治学学者集体构思，是巴黎政治学院15年专题教学的结晶，可谓“全球化百科全书”。由巴黎政治学院制图中心所制作的地图和图表无疑构成了本专业领域的性参考资料。
