SUPERPOWER
Three Choices for America's Role in the World
From the bestselling author of The End of the Free Market comes the story of three provocative choices facing the world’s sole superpower.
Global policy expert Bremmer calls for a complete rethink of America’s role in tomorrow’s world. In an increasingly volatile international environment, the question has never been more important. Bremmer explores three choices, each with its own benefits and drawbacks:
“Independent America” argues that it’s time for Washington to declare independence from the responsibility to solve everyone else’s problems. Instead, America should lead by example by investing in its own enormous untapped potential.
“Moneyball America” acknowledges that the US can’t manage every international challenge but asserts that it must defend its own interests wherever they’re threatened. It looks beyond phony arguments about American exceptionalism with a clear-eyed assessment of US strengths and limitations.
“Indispensable America” insists that only Washington can promote the values on which global stability increasingly depends in our hyper-connected world. Turning inward would threaten America’s, and the world’s, security and prosperity.
Bremmer makes his best pitch for each scenario, offers his own conclusions, and challenges readers to choose.
Ian Bremmer is the president and founder of the Eurasia Group, the leading global political risk research and consulting firm. He has published ten books including the national bestsellers The End of the Free Market and Every Nation For Itself (see the attached foreign sales list). He is an active public speaker and a contributor to the Financial Times and Reuters, among others.
