Waste Land - Kaplan Robert D. - książka
Producent: Hurst
We stand on the brink of a tumultuous global period characterized by a perilous blend of warfare, climate crises, intense rivalries between major powers, rapid technological breakthroughs, and the dissolution of empires. In "Waste Land," esteemed author on global issues, Robert D. Kaplan, provides a sharp analysis of the path that led us here and the direction we might be heading. Drawing from his well-known breadth of understanding in history, literature, politics, and philosophy, Kaplan identifies similarities between current global challenges and those faced by Germany during the interwar Weimar Republic. In our modern era, any national calamity has the potential to impact the entire world due to unique twenty-first-century challenges such as pandemics, economic downturns, urbanization, and mass migration. Compounded by the effects of large-scale democracy, major power conflicts, and the intricate connections enabled by digital media, these issues raise questions about whether stability and the principles of historic liberalism might protect global communities from descending into chaos. "Waste Land" offers a thought-provoking outlook on a future shaped by contemporary technology, with echoes of historical precedence. The situation risks spiraling beyond our grasp unless proactive measures are taken by global leaders.
