Description

Product Description The new world order as it stood after the apparent end of the Cold War and the collapse of the USSR was greeted with enthusiasm and optimism almost everywhere, but especially in the West. Less than a quarter century later that optimism has faded dramatically, with the rise of populism, nationalism, religious extremism and civil discord disrupting political and social norms around the world. This book reveals the extent to which events that began as internal political crises in Europe, the Middle East and the USA have sent ripple effects reaching into all points of the globe. The projection of liberal democratic predominance in the 1990s, has faded as illiberal governance gains support worldwide. Long-standing international trade patterns are disrupted, perhaps permanently, by the weaponization of economic sanctions, real and perceived threats of terrorism raise levels of anxiety everywhere, and severe new weather patterns inflict floods, fires, drought and hurricanes on populations unused to such extremes. This book describes and analyses many of these phenomena in the hope that better understanding of them may help ameliorate their consequences. Review Larry Black and his team of excellent scholars provide us with a high-level analysis of defining cases and issues in the growing world disorder. As usual Larry Black takes us out the conventional wisdom. Leaving aside recipes for a new order the essays of this book offer stimulating ideas and perspectives to circumvent the very possible worse case scenarios.--Jacques Lévesque, University of Quebec, MontrealThe sheer breadth of topics covered in The New World Disorder: Challenges and Threats in an Uncertain World is incredibly impressive. Hitting on pressing global security challenges such as terrorism, the conflict in Ukraine, and the United Kingdom's nuclear deterrent and Brexit, this tome addresses many issues of relevance to both scholars and policymakers. Taken together, the authors make a compelling case for the beginning of a new period of disorder and international transition.--Brian Mazanec, Missouri State UniversityThis book deserves a wide readership for the light that it throws on many of the problems that our troubled world faces today. Each of the contributors helps to dispel misunderstandings and distortions.--Paul Dukes, Emeritus Professor of History, University of Aberdeen About the Author David Andersen-Rodgers is an Associate Professor of Political Science and co-ordinator of the Peace and Conflict Resolution minor at California State University, Sacramento. He has worked in Washington D.C. as a researcher and Scoville Fellow at the Federation of American Scientists.
