Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In The Empire of Disorder, Alain Joxe offers the first truly comprehensive analysis of the new world disorder of the twenty-first century. The contemporary world, claims Joxe, is dominated by the American empire but not ordered by it. This andquot;leadership through chaos,andquot; based on maintaining a andquot;creeping peace,andquot; is at the root of the present organization of violence and barbary on a global scale. At the same time, national governmentsandmdash;including that of the United Statesandmdash;are declining in influence as the imperial system fosters transnational mafias, corporations, and markets.
