The End of America?

A Guide to the New World Disorder

America, oncethe global democratic leader and military powerhouse, is declining ininfluence. Friedman details this fall, from the Vietnam War to Obama'smishandling of the Arab Spring, and Trump's presidency. Now, with the rise ofChina and Russia, the world faces a New World Disorder.

America wasthe shining city on a hill. It was the country at the forefront of the worlddemocratic order, the global policeman, the might of its military matched onlyby the depth of its financial reserves. America was the one the world listenedto, whether it wanted to or not. So what happened?

Well, a lotof things. In this searing account, Alan Friedman shows how, from thedisastrous Vietnam War to Barack Obama's bungled response to the Arab Spring,American intervention is no longer the decisive action it once was. And now,with the rise of China and Russia, coupled with America's prostration of itselffollowing the election of Donald Trump, the decline of its authority is onlyhastening.

We move now,Friedman argues, into the New World Disorder. In this dangerous and unstableworld, the Washington-enforced liberal order is receding, and a new set ofanxieties and alliances are in ascendance. What is America's place in this?Which powers will emerge as leaders? Will the European Union count at all? Weknow one thing: the New World Disorder will challenge Western values tobreaking point.
