Summary "Summit" by Mack Reynolds is a science fiction novella written during the early 1960s. The story explores themes of diplomacy and the tensions of the Cold War through a fictional summit meeting between two rival leaders. Set against a backdrop of political unease and a world recovering from nuclear disaster, the book delves into the complexities of international relations and the human condition. In "Summit," the narrative focuses on a conference between two key figures: President James Warren Donlevy and Marshal Vladimir Ignatov. As they engage in conversation, they navigate personal and political challenges while discussing the implications of their militarized economies and the looming threats of war. The leaders express their concerns about societal beliefs, economic pressures, and the burden of maintaining power amidst global conflict. Their exchange reveals a sense of despair regarding the possibility of peace and highlights the cyclical nature of violence and governance, ultimately showcasing the futility and repetitive nature of their political games.
