Description
“A provocative thought experiment that will engage anyone interested in contemporary geopolitics.” – Kirkus Reviews. The world is entering a new era of global cataclysm: a deadly mixture of wars, climate change, great-power rivalry, rapid technological progress and the end of empires. In his new book, renowned author Robert D. Kaplan incisively explains how we reached this situation and where we are heading. Kaplan’s characteristic focus on history, literature, politics and philosophy reveals parallels between today’s challenges and the problems of Germany’s interwar Weimar Republic. Today, too, every national catastrophe has the potential to affect the entire world. Could stability and historical liberalism, or mass democracy, better protect the global population from total chaos? This Czech-language book offers a bold look at a future defined by twenty-first-century technologies that nevertheless resonates remarkably with the past. If our leaders do not intervene in time, the situation could easily spiral out of control.
