Kissinger is ‘seen everywhere, but forgotten.’ This article examines his antidote for the changing world order and his realism including his recourse to violent options as part of a desire to assert or retain US credibility. Kissinger’s preoccupation with credibility, both US and his own, are repeatedly evident in his policy prescriptions, while his image of US credibility often conflated the instrumentalism of force with the projection of power. In our academic and cultural discourse, the suffering and death associated with his policy engagement are acknowledged but rarely foregrounded-they are refracted through paradigms of realism, credibility and world orders-the local, regional and the human are elided. Contributing to and shaping the public and academic debate were essential parts of his credibility. ![]() In many respects Kissinger has been ‘forgotten.’ His pursuit of ‘world order’ was not just about his outlook during his period in office it was also about maintaining his intellectual scaffolding after that time.
