Trump 2.0 - Springer Studies in American Politics by Grzegorz W Kolodko Hardcover

From the Back Cover

In an era of rapid geopolitical shifts and economic uncertainty, this book takes an academic, professional, and unorthodox approach to analyzing the intricate feedback loops between politics, economics, and security. Against the backdrop of pressing global challenges, this book examines how Donald Trump's return to the White House could reshape the world order, disrupt existing alliances, and redefine America's role on the international stage.

Trump's unconventional leadership style has long been a subject of debate, but what are its deeper implications for long-term global development? Can history and geopolitics provide foresight before crises escalate? What conditions must be met to ensure sustainable economic, social, and political stability? And how do security concerns intertwine with technological, environmental, and demographic transformations?

Presenting evidence-based yet necessarily controversial perspectives, this book encourages critical reflection on the evolving world landscape. It is an essential read for scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking to comprehend the complexities of modern geopolitics and the far-reaching consequences of America's pursuit of global hegemony.
