Pages : 103

Book Description
Considering the actual environment in society, would you, the middle and working class, say that you are better off today than, let’s say, a few years back? What has changed? This is the issue analyzed in this book. Our present state of affairs started long time ago, and it was put in motion, not by you, but by the United Nations, supported by the world’s elite. It’s called the 2030 Agenda, wholeheartedly endorsed by the World Economic Forum, also called the Davos Forum, composed of the world’s top politicians, financiers, and big pharma companies, and even with the blessing of the Catholic Pope and China’s leader Xi Jinping. What was needed to achieve total domination of the world was a state of universal fear, as Machiavelli states in The Prince. That they did: first with a manufactured pandemic (coronavirus), predicted with total accuracy just before it happened. A coincidence, or a premeditated criminal act? Then a questionable election in the United States which brought socialism to our nation, a necessary first step to communism and a totalitarian government. This is the present situation. So ask yourself again: Are you better off today than a few years ago? What has happened? Please read the book.

The New Russia

Author: Mikhail Gorbachev
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1509503919
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422

Book Description
After years of rapprochement, the relationship between Russia and the West is more strained now than it has been in the past 25 years. Putin’s motives, his reasons for seeking confrontation with the West, remain for many a mystery. Not for Mikhail Gorbachev. In this new work, Russia’s elder statesman draws on his wealth of knowledge and experience to reveal the development of Putin’s regime and the intentions behind it. He argues that Putin has significantly diminished the achievements of perestroika and is part of an over-centralized system that presents a precarious future for Russia. Faced with this, Gorbachev advocates a radical reform of politics and a new fostering of pluralism and social democracy. Gorbachev’s insightful analysis moves beyond internal politics to address wider problems in the region, including the Ukraine conflict, as well as the global challenges of poverty and climate change. Above all else, he insists that solutions are to be found by returning to the atmosphere of dialogue and cooperation which was so instrumental in ending the Cold War. This book represents the summation of Gorbachev’s thinking on the course that Russia has taken since 1991 and stands as a testament to one of the greatest and most influential statesmen of the twentieth century.

China’s Challenges and International Order Transition

Author: Huiyun Feng
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 0472126458
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 331

Book Description
China’s Challenges and International Order Transition introduces an integrated conceptual framework of “international order” categorized by three levels (power, rules, and norms) and three issue-areas (security, political, and economic). Each contributor engages one or more of these analytical dimensions to examine two questions: (1) Has China already challenged this dimension of international order? (2) How will China challenge this dimension of international order in the future? The contested views and perspectives in this volume suggest it is too simple to assume an inevitable conflict between China and the outside world. With different strategies to challenge or reform the many dimensions of international order, China’s role is not a one-way street. It is an interactive process in which the world may change China as much as China may change the world. The aim of the book is to broaden the debate beyond the “Thucydides Trap” perspective currently popular in the West. Rather than offering a single argument, this volume offers a platform for scholars, especially Chinese scholars vs. Western scholars, to exchange and debate their different views and perspectives on China and the potential transition of international order.

The Politics of Good Intentions

Author: David Runciman
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400827124
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 223

Book Description
Tony Blair has often said that he wishes history to judge the great political controversies of the early twenty-first century--above all, the actions he has undertaken in alliance with George W. Bush. This book is the first attempt to fulfill that wish, using the long history of the modern state to put the events of recent years--the war on terror, the war in Iraq, the falling out between Europe and the United States--in their proper perspective. It also dissects the way that politicians like Blair and Bush have used and abused history to justify the new world order they are creating. Many books about international politics since 9/11 contend that either everything changed or nothing changed on that fateful day. This book identifies what is new about contemporary politics but also how what is new has been exploited in ways that are all too familiar. It compares recent political events with other crises in the history of modern politics--political and intellectual, ranging from seventeenth-century England to Weimar Germany--to argue that the risks of the present crisis have been exaggerated, manipulated, and misunderstood. David Runciman argues that there are three kinds of time at work in contemporary politics: news time, election time, and historical time. It is all too easy to get caught up in news time and election time, he writes. This book is about viewing the threats and challenges we face in real historical time.

Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism

Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004516484
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 328

Book Description
Composed of original articles from academics and policy notes from practitioners, this book attempts to draw up the state of multilateralism through the UN model and identify potential ways to address its challenges and shortcomings. The contributors question the role of multilateralism, sometimes accused of being fragmented, inefficient and unrepresentative, and its impact on global governance, democracy, trade and investment, the environment, and human rights. Since most of the authors are not from the UN system, the content of the contributions provides an external and more neutral assessment of the UN’s ability to continue to function today as a serious actor within a global movement in favor of a renewed form of multilateralism. Does the UN Model Still Work? Challenges and Prospects for the Future of Multilateralism is now available in paperback for individual customers.

Russia, BRICS, and the Disruption of Global Order

Author: Rachel S. Salzman
Publisher: Georgetown University Press
ISBN: 1626166617
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 198

Book Description
Russia's leadership in establishing the BRICS group (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) is emblematic of its desire to end US hegemony and rewrite the rules of the international system. Rachel S. Salzman tells the story of why Russia broke with the West, how BRICS came together, why the group is emblematic of Russia's challenge to the existing global order, and how BRICS has changed since its debut. The BRICS group of non-Western states with emerging economies is held together by a shared commitment to revising global economic governance and strict noninterference in the internal affairs of other countries. BRICS is not exclusively a Russian story, but understanding the role of BRICS in Russian foreign policy is critical to understanding the group’s mission. In a time of alienation from the Euro-Atlantic world, BRICS provides Russia with much needed political support and legitimacy. While the longterm cohesion of the group is uncertain, BRICS stands as one of Vladimir Putin's signature international accomplishments. This book is essential reading for scholars and policymakers interested in Russian foreign policy, the BRICS group, and global governance.
