A Year of American Berserk (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

As American power frays, its capacity for violence and coercion remains undiminished.

The United States is no longer able to organize the world on its own terms-but it still possesses extraordinary power to wage war, discipline allies, punish adversaries, and shape the global order. In A Year of American Berserk, James Schneider traces this contradiction through a year of reporting and political analysis written in the midst of accelerating global upheaval.

From Palestine, Iran, Cuba, and Venezuela to the rise of the far right, Britain's Atlanticist dependency, and the changing architecture of global power, Schneider argues that American decline has entered a more volatile and dangerous phase. Rather than offering retrospective history, these essays capture events as they unfolded, revealing the instability, contradictions, and consequences of an empire struggling to maintain its dominance.

Drawing on his experience organizing alongside political movements, trade unions, and governments across several continents, Schneider offers an urgent account of a world in transition-and the forces attempting to build alternatives amid the breakdown of the American century.
