Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the historical, political and economic forces that shaped the Cold War, a prolonged period of tension between two opposing global blocs. On one side stood the liberal democratic, capitalist alliance led by the United States, and on the other, the communist-socialist bloc led by the former Soviet Union. In the aftermath of the two World Wars, these major powers emerged as dominant actors on the global stage, each intent on preventing the other from expanding its influence. Their rivalry played out across military, ideological, technological and economic fronts. When the Soviet Union eventually collapsed at the beginning of the 1990s, it left the United States as the sole superpower, positioning it as the primary arbiter of geopolitical direction and economic stability.

The book also reflects on more recent global developments. The COVID-19 pandemic exposed the extent to which the world had come to rely on China for manufactured goods. Disruptions to Chinese supply chains revealed critical vulnerabilities in global production systems.

In pursuing globalisation and opening access to emerging markets, the United States and other Western countries allowed large segments of their industrial and service sectors to shift overseas. This contributed to China's rise as the central hub of global manufacturing and gradually reduced America's position of economic dominance.

Rapid advances in information technology and telecommunications further accelerated globalisation. These developments weakened the traditional sovereignty of nation-states, reshaped democratic systems into more corporate-driven structures, and empowered transnational corporations that now influence economic and political outcomes on a global scale.
