Full Description
The book addresses international topics such as rapid developments in the global economy, the revival of great-power rivalry, and the growing influence of non-state actors. Domestic coverage includes trends in the U.S. economy, political polarization, bureaucratic rivalries, and the effects of social media as a primary venue for news. The most pressing question is whether U.S. foreign policymakers can manage these dynamics in a manner that preserves U.S. primacy.
