Every Nation for Itself


Following the acclaim for "The End of the Free Market", Ian Bremmer is back with "Every Nation for Itself", now in paperback, where he addresses the next big issue for the shifting world economy. "Smart and snappy ...provides the most cogent prediction of the how the politics of a post-America world will play out". ("New Statesman"). What happens when nobody's running the world? The United States is in financial crisis and can't hold onto the reins of the G-20. But China has no interest in international leadership, Europe is trying to save the euro, and emerging powers like Brazil and India are focused on domestic development. No government has the time, resources or political capital needed to take an international lead. The world power structure is about to have a vacancy...at the top. Welcome to the G-Zero world, in which no single country has the power to shape a truly global agenda. That means we are about to see 20 years of conflict over economics, finance and climate change. Bestselling author and strategist Ian Bremmer reveals how world powers are rapidly turning into gated communities, locked in competition. Who will prevail? "A prodigy in the US global commentariat. Mr Bremmer's rehearsal of the consequences should make us all wise up". ("Financial Times"). "An author who is always full of insights". (George Osborne). Ian Bremmer is the president of the world's leading global political risk research and consulting firm, Eurasia Group. He has written for the "Wall Street Journal", "Washington Post", "Newsweek", and "Harvard Business Review". His six books include "The J Curve" and "The End Of The Free Market".

Konec volného trhu


Poslední ekonomická krize byla připsána do značné míry na vrub chybějícím regulačním mechanismům na finančním trhu. Tato skutečnost nastolila i v tradičně liberálních státech znovu otázku státních zásahů do hospodářství. Ian Bremmer ve své čtivé knize pečlivě rozkrývá výchozí situaci a formuluje argumenty zastánců linie volného trhu i těch, kteří volají po větší míře státního dirigismu. Ukazuje, že ve skutečnosti neexistuje ani jedna z obou variant v ideální podobě, ale jde vždy o proměnlivou směs obojího. Protikladem liberálního kapitalismu není socialismus, ale státní kapitalismus, za nímž nestojí ideologická východiska, ale politické zájmy státu, jimž je podřízena sféra ekonomiky. Anglický politolog Bremmer, autor několika knih, předkládá kritické zamyšlení nad jejich pozitivy i negativy a poukazuje na problémy, které s sebou každá z cest přináší.

Superpower


America will remain the world s only superpower for the foreseeable future. But what sort of superpower? What role should America play in the world?What role do you want America to play? Ian Bremmer argues that Washington s directionless foreign policy has become prohibitively expensive and increasingly dangerous. Since the end of the Cold War, U.S. policymakers have stumbled from crisis to crisis in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, and Ukraine without a clear strategy. Ordinary Americans too often base their foreign policy choices on allegiance or opposition to the party in power. We can no longer afford this complacency, especially now that both parties are deeply divided about America s role in the world. The next presidential election could easily pit an interventionist Democrat against an isolationist Republican or the exact opposite. As 2016 rapidly approaches, Bremmer urges every American to think more deeply about what sort of country America should be and how it should use its superpower status. He explores three options: Independent America asserts that it s time for America to declare independence from the responsibility to solve other people s problems. Instead, Americans should lead by example in part, by investing in the country s vast untapped potential. Moneyball America acknowledges that Washington can t meet every international challenge. With a clear-eyed assessment of U.S. strengths and limitations, we must look beyond empty arguments over exceptionalism and American values. The priorities must be to focus on opportunities and to defend U.S. interests where they re threatened. Indispensable America argues that only America can defend the values on which global stability increasingly depends. In today s interdependent, hyperconnected world, a turn inward would undermine America s own security and prosperity. We will never live in a stable world while others are denied their most basic freedoms from China to Russia to the Middle East and beyond. There are sound arguments for and against each of these choices, but we must choose. Washington can no longer improvise a foreign policy without a lasting commitment to a coherent strategy. As Bremmer notes, When I began writing this book, I didn t know which of these three choices I would favor. It s easy to be swayed by pundits and politicians with a story to sell or an ax to grind. My attempt to make the most honest and forceful case I could make for each of these three arguments helped me understand what I believe and why I believe it. I hope it will do the same for you. I don t ask you to agree with me. I ask only that you choose. "

Us vs. Them


Ian Bremmer is provocative, controversial, and always intelligent about the state of the world, which he knows so well' - Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund -------------- From Brexit, to Donald Trump, to extremist parties in Europe and the developing world, populism has dominated recent headlines. But what explains the rise of leaders who stoke nationalist anger in their countries, from Le Pen to Erdogan? How long will the populist wave last? Who will be the winners and losers in this climate, and how can we defend the values of democracy, free trade and international cooperation? No one is better suited to explore these questions than Ian Bremmer, the CEO of the Eurasia Group and acclaimed Time magazine columnist. Analysing the social, economic and technological forces fuelling this new wave of populism, Bremmer explains why we're witnessing a rejection of the democratic, global, cosmopolitan trends of the late 20th century. Us vs. Them is a definitive guide to navigating the shifting political landscape, for businesses looking to weather and survive the populist storm. -------------- 'Global politics is a jungle today. Thank goodness Ian Bremmer can be your guide' - David Miliband, president and CEO of the International Rescue Committee 'A masterful analysis of why global crashed and populism soared' - Adam Grant, author of Give and Take, and Originals and Option B with Sheryl Sandberg
