One is internal. The others are external. The internal threat is a potent and increasingly anti-patriotic, anti-competitive, anti-meritocratic, and sky-is-the-limit federal deficit spending political current that is simultaneously diminishing and destabilizing American and global economic vitality. The two major external threats are the rising military power of Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran and a global economic malaise sowing the seeds of discontent. America's role in containing the spread of new wave authoritarianism, and fostering competitiveness and global prosperity is critical, but domestic politics is preventing the Biden administration from adequately responding to these challenges. Biden's America is adrift. America is key to the survival of the free world. America is currently a beleaguered superpower. This book is possibly the first to address the politics shaping the likely course of America's new president in world affairs. It is politics, not idealist and realist abstractions, which determine international security. The world is concerned about what course Biden will take and the likely consequences. It will be the most carefully researched of such books. The book deals explicitly and extensively with issues such as spreading authoritarianism, the emerging new Cold War, global growth retardation, civic discord, economic sanctions, arms control, soft power and the deteriorating correlation of forces. The China weapons section of the book draws from the latest assessment made by the American Department of Defense. The book also includes a section on China's new technology generating innovation model and a chapter on Covid-19"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Biden, Joseph R., $c Jr. 600 17 $a Biden, Joseph R., $c Jr. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00050071 651 0 $a United States $x History $x History $y 21st century. 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 2021- 650 7 $a International economic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976891 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a Since 2000 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Mills, Daniel Quinn, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0722DDA85F0811ECA70E6FDD2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
