Krátky popis
'A compelling warning ... It is hard to disagree with this advice
from such a well-informed friend of the west' Martin Wolf,
Financial TimesThe West's two-century epoch as global powerhouse is
at an end. A new world order, with China and India as the strongest
economies, dawns.How will the West react to its new status of
superpower in decline? In Kishore Mahbubani's timely polemic, he
argues passionately that the West can no longer presume to impose
its ideology on the world, and crucially, that it must stop seeking
to intervene, politically and militarily, in the affairs of other
nations. He examines the West's greatest follies of recent times:
the humiliation of Russia at the end of the Cold War, which led to
the rise of Putin, and the invasion of Iraq after 9/11, which
destabilised the Middle East. Yet, he argues, essential to future
world peace are the Western constructs of democracy and reason,
which it must continue to promote, by diplomacy rather than force,
via multilateral institutions of global governance such as the
UN.Only by recognising its changing status, and seeking to
influence rather than dominate, he warns, can the West continue to
play a key geopolitical role. 'Kishore Mahbubani might well be the
most intelligent, friendly and doggedly persistent critic of the
West. In this brief book, he delivers some of his trademark
analysis and pungent observations.We should all think of it as the
cold shower that is urgently needed to revive the West' Fareed
Zakaria, author of The Post-American World
