All nations, including the United States, face systemic crises that are reinforcing each other at an explosive point in history. The status quo is now the problem rather than the solution. These novel crises demand an entirely new grand strategy. The global crisis offers an opportunity to redraw America’s grand strategy from the ground up. Should we fail to make full use of this opportunity, the United States will fail, along with all the other nation-states that are incapable of redefining the problems so that new solutions become possible.

A timely primer on the conflict between the United States and Iran by scholars of Middle Eastern politics who advocate diplomacy and de-escalation.

Die Neuerfindung der Weltpolitik. Das Zeitalter der kohlenstoffbasierten Energieerzeugung geht zu Ende. Eine vergleichbare Zäsur ist auch für das globale politische System zu erwarten. Menschen sind Gewohnheitstiere und stellen sich die Zukunft nur allzu gerne als eine Weiterführung der Gegenwart vor, das galt selbst nach so großen Umbrüchen wie dem Kollaps der Sowjetunion vor 30 Jahren. Und es gilt auch heute wieder, in Zeiten einer dreifachen Welterschütterung - der Pandemie, der galoppierenden Erderwärmung und der digitalen Revolution.

Uri Bialer lays a foundation for understanding the principal aspects of Israeli foreign policy, from the early days of the state's existence to the Oslo Accords. In addition to identifying important state actors, Bialer highlights the many figures who had no defined, diplomatic roles, but were influential in establishing foreign policy goals. He shows how foreign policy was essential to the political, economic, and social well-being of the state, and how it helped to deal with Israel's most intractable problem - the resolution of the conflict with Arab states and the Palestinians.

Trump, la Brexit, i risultati delle elezioni in molti paesi europei, la Turchia di Erdogan, l'India di Modi: prendono forza a livello globale tendenze che paiono sancire il divorzio fra la democrazia e i principi liberali che l'hanno innervata, soprattutto in Occidente. Eppure viviamo in un mondo che non vede affatto, come si crede, un peggioramento socioeconomico o un aumento delle diseguaglianze.

En el marco de la globalización actual, se multiplican las variables que es necesario manejar para entender el orden establecido. Por esta razón, el especialista en política internacional Mariano Turzi traza en este libro un mapa para entender el mapa. El camino que propone recorre primero las teorías de análisis y pasea luego por el concepto de Estado-nación, que desarma y vuelve a armar para que podamos asimilar sin dificultad sus componentes.

In einer Welt des rapiden machtpolitischen und technologischen Wandels müssen sich Deutschland und Europa strategisch neu orientieren: Im Wettkampf zwischen den USA und China gerät Europa bereits zwischen die Fronten. Und dies wird auch unser Verhältnis zu Russland verändern müssen. Jetzt ist ein nüchterner, illusionsloser Blick auf die neuen Realitäten notwendig, wie Klaus von Dohnanyi zeigt: Auf "Wertegemeinschaften" oder "Freundschaften" können wir nicht vertrauen, Deutschland und Europa müssen vielmehr offen ihre eigenen, wohl verstandenen Interessen formulieren und mit Realismus verfolgen.

¿Sabía usted que dos agencias del gobierno estadounidense -el Centro para el Control de Enfermedades y el Comando Estratégico- han publicado planes de contingencia ante la eventualidad de un brote zombi? Siguiendo esa insigne tradición, los autores de este libro se preguntan cuáles serían las implicaciones políticas de una pandemia zombi como la descrita en "The Walking Dead". Sin embargo, mientras lidiaban con pandemias imaginarias, nuestro mundo fue asolado por una real (la de la COVID-19), por esa razón este libro le dedica un capítulo por derecho propio.

Millaisiin uskomattomiin tilanteisiin suomalaiset ovat joutuneet ulkomailla liikkuessaan? Suomen ulkomaanedustus on pelastanut turisteja monenlaisessa hädässä, eikä kaikkein hulluimpia sattumuksia olisi voinut edes keksiä. Joskus turistit joutuvat pulaan oman törttöilynsä takia, mutta toisinaan kyseessä on myös sotatilanne tai muu kriisi, joka velvoittaa edustuston auttamaan. Kirja kokoaa yhteen joukon sattumuksia vuodesta 1918 vuoteen 1981 ja paljastaa, millä tavoin avun luonne on muuttunut historian saatossa.

India's relations with the People's Republic of China have captured the popular imagination ever since the 1950s but have rarely merited a detailed understanding of the issues. Individual episodes tend to arouse lively debate, which often dissipates without a deeper exploration of the factors that shaped the outcomes.

In The Money Revolution: How to Finance the Next American Century, economist and best-selling author Richard Duncan lays out a farsighted strategy to maximize the United States' unmatched financial and technological potential. In compelling fashion, the author shows that the United States can and should invest in the industries and technologies of the future on an unprecedented scale in order to ignite a new technological revolution that would cement the country's geopolitical preeminence, greatly enhance human well-being, and create unimaginable wealth.

In 16 extended talks with Alternative Radio's David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky explains why the 'war on drugs' is really a war on poor people, how attacks on political correctness are attacks on independent thought, how historical revisionism has recast the United States as the victim in the Vietnam War. Widely recognised as one of the most original and important thinkers of our age, Chomsky's trenchant analysis of current events is a breath of fresh air in a world more and more polluted by mainstream media.

Are you tired of hearing people constantly complain and moan about a world problem but offer you no solutions as to what you can do to help resolve this issue? Can you tell what problem I am talking about yet? Of course, I am talking about manufactured scarcity. Anyone who vaguely follows this topic will know that it is consistently increasing in the US, but many don’t know that it is also increasing across most other countries.

In Americans in China, Terry Lautz provides a series of biographical portraits of Americans who have lived and worked in China from before the Communist era to the present. The pathbreaking experiences of these men and women provide unique insights and deeply human perspectives on issues that have shaped US engagement with the People's Republic: politics, diplomacy, education, business, art, law, journalism, and human rights.

Militaries with state-of-the-art information technology sometimes bog down in confusing conflicts. To understand why, it is important to understand the micro-foundations of military power in the information age - and this is exactly what Jon R. Lindsay's Information Technology and Military Power gives us. As Lindsay shows, digital systems now mediate almost every effort to gather, store, display, analyze, and communicate information in military organizations. He highlights how personnel now struggle with their own information systems, as much as with the enemy.

In forensic and compelling detail, Jytte Klausen traces how Islamist revolutionaries exiled in Europe and North America in the 1990s helped create and control one of the world's most impactful terrorist movements - and how, after the near-obliteration of the organization during the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, they helped build it again. She shows how the diffusion of Islamist terrorism to Europe and North America has been driven, not by local grievances of Western Muslims, but by the strategic priorities of the international Salafi-jihadist revolutionary movement.

Hybrid war, grey-zone warfare, unrestricted war: Today, traditional conflict - fought with guns, bombs, and drones - has become too expensive to wage, too unpopular at home, and too difficult to manage. In an age when America threatens Europe with sanctions, and when China spends billions buying influence abroad, the world is heading for a new era of permanent low-level conflict, often unnoticed, undeclared, and unending.

La gestione della pandemia di Covid-19 lascerà un'impronta minacciosa e duratura sul futuro dell'umanità, al di là degli aspetti sanitari. In questo libro Diego Fusaro, filosofo del "pensare altrimenti" e celebre voce fuori dal coro nel dibattito italiano, mostra come l'emergenza sia diventata un vero e proprio metodo di governo. Il potere sfrutta la paura del contagio per ristrutturare in senso oligarchico e autoritario tanto la società quanto l'economia e la politica. Mentre diritti e libertà fondamentali vengono sospesi.
