So let’s play strategy czar. You are a 21st-century Kissinger. Your task is to guide the next American president (and the one after that) from
the demise of American hegemony into a world of much more diffuse governance. What do you advise, concretely, to mitigate the effects of the past
decade’s policies — those that inspired defiance rather than cooperation — and to set in motion a virtuous circle of policies that lead to
global equilibrium rather than a balance of power against the U.S.?
Waving Goodbye to Hegemony
Globalism killed the goose that laid the golden egg. Now the U.S. is sinking rapidly in a mire of debt into looming recession.
What are the root causes, and what can be done to rectify the situation?
The road map is vastly different from the one the current administration is playing with. Nothing like using 18th century diplomacy to resolve a 21st
century crisis.
