Recognizing the challenges inherent in this effort, and the obstacles being placed in China's way by American-led imperialism, Martinez clearly demonstrates that China remains committed to the revolutionary mission of creating a just and equitable social economy for itself and as part of the imperative work of addressing the challenges of global climate change. He rejects those voices which see China as a neoliberal member of the global capitalist order, and upholds the need to recognize China's achievements in eliminating absolute poverty and improving the lives of its people as well as in leading in the construction of a new international order outside the hegemonic domination of the United States and its allies.

This incisive book addresses the demise of liberal hegemony, though pointing out that a multipolar Westphalian world order has not yet taken shape, leaving the world in a period of interregnum. A legal vacuum has emerged, in which the conflicting sides are competing to define the future order. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNATO expansionism was an important component of liberal hegemony as it was intended to cement the collective hegemony of the West as the foundation for a liberal democratic peace. Instead, it dismantled the pan-European security architecture and set Europe on the path to war without the possibility of a course correction. Ukraine as a divided country in a divided Europe has been a crucial pawn in the great power competition between NATO and Russia for the past three decades. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe war in Ukraine is a symptom of the collapsing world order. The war revealed the dysfunction of liberal hegemony in terms of both power and legitimacy, and it sparked a proxy war between the West and Russia instead of ensuring peace, the source of its legitimacy. \u003cbr\u003eThe proxy war, unprecedented sanctions, and efforts to isolate Russia in the wider world contributed to the demise of liberal hegemony as opposed to its revival. Much of the world responded to the war by intensifying their transition to a Eurasian world order that rejects hegemony and liberal universalism. The economic architecture is being reorganised as the world diversifies away from excessive reliance on Western technologies, industries, transportation corridors, banks, payment systems, insurance systems, and currencies. Universalism based on Western values is replaced by civilisational distinctiveness, sovereign inequality is swapped with sovereign equality, socialising inferiors is replaced by negotiations, and the rules-based international order is discarded in favour of international law. A Westphalian world order is reasserting itself, although with Eurasian characteristics. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe West's defeat of Russia would restore the unipolar world order while a Russian victory would cement a multipolar one.

He didn't just lead-he lived what he believed. From his earliest student rallies to the global reach of Turning Point USA, Charlie Kirk's life tells a story of unwavering faith, youthful defiance, and a mission that grew far beyond any stage he ever stood on. What began as one teenager's conviction that truth still matters became a nationwide call for courage, moral clarity, and spiritual revival in the public square. In this revealing biography, author Chris W. Klevik retraces the extraordinary journey of a young believer who transformed disappointment into destiny-confronting hostility on college campuses, challenging cultural silence, and mentoring a generation hungry to connect conviction with purpose. Behind the viral moments and political firestorms were sleepless nights, spiritual battles, and a faith that refused to bend. Readers will discover: - The unshakable belief that fueled every message, rally, and debate - The controversies and misquotes that tested his resilience and refined his voice - Firsthand stories from students, pastors, and families changed by his influence - His pivotal role in energizing youth engagement and shaping modern elections - How his wife, Erika, and their children continue the mission he began, anchored in the same faith that defined his life Through tragedy and triumph alike, The Life and Death of Charlie Kirk captures the cost-and the courage-of living by conviction in a skeptical age.

Moving from ancient Sumer, India, Greece, and Mesoamerica, through medieval caliphates and Eurasian empires into the present, Acharya shows that humanitarian values, economic interdependence, and rules of inter-state conduct emerged across the globe over millennia. History suggests order will endure even as the West retreats. In fact, the end of Western dominance offers us the opportunity to build a better world, where non-Western nations find more voice, power, and prosperity. Instead of fearing the future, the West should learn from history and cooperate with the Rest to forge a more equitable order. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This is the definitive account of how world order evolved and why it will survive the decline of the West.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1541604148\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781541604148\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Acharya, Amitav, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Basic Books\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"HardCover (Apr 2025)","offer_id":45659889238213,"sku":"9781541604148","price":30.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9781541604148.jpg?v=1768915393"},{"product_id":"the-russian-art-of-war-how-the-west-led-ukraine-to-defeat","title":"The Russian Art of War: How the West Led Ukraine to Defeat","description":"Why is Ukraine losing the war against Russia?

His deeply researched and personal accounts capture the diverse landscapes, people, and conflicted interests that define this complex northern region. The result is both an elegy for a vanishing landscape and an urgent warning about how the race for Arctic dominance could spark the next global conflict.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1668052334\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781668052334\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Rosen, Kenneth R.\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Simon \u0026amp; Schuster\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Jan 2026)","offer_id":46080878051525,"sku":"9781668052334","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9781668052334.jpg?v=1776041381"},{"product_id":"the-afghans-three-lives-through-war-love-and-revolt","title":"The Afghans: Three Lives Through War, Love, and Revolt","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA \u003ci\u003eKIRKUS \u003c\/i\u003eBEST BOOK OF THE YEAR\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"An astonishing feat of writing and reporting and one of the finest books written on Afghanistan in a generation.\" \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e-\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eEliza Griswold, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of \u003ci\u003eAmity and Prosperity\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"A valuable addition to the canon of literature on the country . . .

For centuries, he shows, America's constant expansion - fighting wars and opening markets - served as a \"gate of escape,\" helping to deflect domestic political and economic conflicts outward. But this deflection meant that the country's problems, from racism to inequality, were never confronted directly. And now, the combined catastrophe of the 2008 financial meltdown and our unwinnable wars in the Middle East have slammed this gate shut, bringing political passions that had long been directed elsewhere back home. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt is this new reality, Grandin says, that explains the rise of reactionary populism and racist nationalism, the extreme anger and polarization that catapulted Trump to the presidency.

Also, his Marxism has also taken Chinese economic thinking to the left-in a more decisively more statist direction and away from the historical dynamism of the private sector. However, Chinese nationalism under Xi has moved further to the right- towards a much, harder-edged, foreign policy vision of China and a new determination to change the international status quo. Xi's worldview is an integrated one, where his national ideological vision for China's future is ultimately inseparable from his view on China's position in the region and the world. These changes in worldview are also reflected in Xi's broader rehabilitation of the concept of \"struggle\" as a legitimate concept for the conduct of both Chinese domestic and foreign policy--a struggle that need not necessarily always be peaceful. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFinally, Xi's ideological worldview also exhibits a new level of nationalist self-confidence about China's future--derived from China's historical and civilizational strengths but reinforced by his Marxist-Leninist concept of historical determinism and the belief that the tides of history are now on firmly China's side. A powerful analysis of the worldview of arguably the most consequential world leader of our era, this will be essential reading for anyone interested in how Xi is transforming both China and the international order, and, most importantly, why?\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 019776603X\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780197766033\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Rudd, Kevin\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Oct 2024)","offer_id":46099687014597,"sku":"9780197766033","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780197766033.jpg?v=1776644213"},{"product_id":"how-to-win-a-trade-war-an-optimistic-guide-to-an-anxious-global-economy","title":"How to Win a Trade War: An Optimistic Guide to an Anxious Global Economy","description":"\u003cb\u003eTwo top trade experts with popular economics podcasts argue for a new way of operating between the biggest economic powers in the world.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe used to take trade for granted.
