Disorder: Hard Times in the 21st Century Thompson Helen
Getting to grips with the overlapping geopolitical, economic, and political crises faced by Western democratic societies in the 2020s. Their fallout has led central banks to create over $25 trillion of new money, brought about a new age of geopolitical competition, destabilised the Middle East, ruptured the European Union, and exposed old political fault lines in the United States. The 21st century has brought a powerful tide of geopolitical, economic, and democratic shocks.
It recounts three histories - one about geopolitics, one about the world economy, and one about western democracies - and explains how in the years of political disorder prior to the pandemic the disruption in each became one big story. Disorder: Hard Times in the 21st Century is a long history of this present political moment. It shows how much of this turbulence originated in problems generated by fossil-fuel energies, and it explains why as the green transition takes place the long-standing predicaments energy invariably shapes will remain in place.
