  3. 3. Disunited Nations

    The Scramble for Power in an Ungoverned World

    Argues that the post–Cold War U.S.-backed global order is unraveling as demographic shifts, energy transformations, and a retreating American security umbrella remove the logistical and political supports of globalization. Without reliable U.S. protection and integrated supply chains, countries will be forced to secure food, energy, and trade routes themselves, producing regional power struggles, disrupted commerce, and uneven outcomes—decline for some states, opportunity for resource-rich or strategically positioned ones, and chronic instability for many. The book maps these geopolitical and economic fault lines and forecasts a more fragmented, conflict-prone world shaped by shifting demographics, geography, and strategic imperatives.
