Debating a Post-American World: What Lies Ahead?: Security and Governance
Editat de Sean Clark, Sabrina Hoqueen Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 dec 2011
While a ‘post-American’ world need not be any different than that of today, the risk associated with such a change provides ample reason for attentive study. Divided into four parts, 50 international relations scholars explore and discuss:
- Power Transitions: addressing issues including the rise of China; the passing of American primacy and the endurance of American leadership.
- War and Peace: addressing nuclear weapons; the risk of war; security privatization and global insecurity
- Global Governance: addressing competition, trade, the UN, sovereignty, humanitarian intervention, law and power.
- Energy and the Environment: addressing resource conflict, petrol, climate change and technology.

Recenzii
"Lieberman challenges traditional deterrence theory, arguing that the concepts developed to explain Cold War rivalries are not suitable for non-nuclear (conventional) deterrence. He uses as case studies the Egyptian-Israeli rivalry up to 1973 and the tension between Israel and Hezbollah." - Survival
Descriere
The United States is currently the linchpin of global trade, technology, and finance, and a military colossus, extending across the world with a network of bases and alliances. This book anticipates the possible issues raised by a transition between American dominance and the rise of alternative powers.
