Publisher's Summary
"Empire" carries huge historical baggage, but America is undeniably an imperial superpower - and yet all empires must end. Whether the US collapses swiftly from internal and external pressures, or declines and dissolves more peacefully over several centuries, depends on what its citizens and leaders do today. The present moment has never been more perilous.
Written from a sympathetic and non-partisan perspective, this book addresses the current climate as the country gears up for the 2024 presidential election. It lays out the historical, political, socio-economic and geopolitical reasons why the American Empire might crumble sooner rather than later, with enormous domestic and global consequences, unless action is taken at every level.
Confronted by troubles at home and rivals abroad, America has its work cut out if it is to endure much longer. Its citizens deserve better - better institutions, greater social harmony, more reliable media, cleaner politicians - and the world yearns for more ethical leadership and less risk of catastrophic conflict.
The End of the American Empire examines all these topics with bracing honesty and compassionate concern, seeking to generate healthy debate and necessary change.
