A világ Amerika után. A hatalom új alakzatai a nemzetközi politikában
The World after America. New Forms of Power in Global Politics

Summary/Abstract: In a well-written, thoroughly documented and captivating book on the “post-American” world, Fareed Zakaria issues a series of warnings to the American political elite which seems to fail in understanding the contemporary world. While its attention is kept captive by pre-modern wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the US Government loses momentum in the processes in which the future is emerging. Through refined analysis dedicated to the advantages and drawbacks of two rising powers, China and India, Zakaria eloquently explains what changes are needed in American politics in order to keep the US in a leading position within the global system. Though his arguments are generally well-informed and convincing, he ignores the importance the emerging German-Russian strategic partnership may have in global politics, and he may be wrong in his assessment about the US potential to successfully integrate immigrants in the future.
