A sharp vision of our changing world order as Covid and climate
breakdown usher in a new 'survival of the fittest'. How well have
different cultures and societies responded, and could this become a
turning point in the flow of history? Before Covid, a new
competition was already arising between alternative geopolitical
models-but the context of this clash wasn't yet clear. What if it
takes place on neutral ground? In a state of nature, with few or no
political rules, amid quickly evolving chaos? When the greatest
threat to national security is no longer other states, but the
environment itself, which countries might rise to the top? This
book explores how Covid-19 has already transformed the global
system, and how it serves as a prelude to a planet afflicted by
climate change. Bruno Macaes is one of the first to see the
pandemic as the dawn of a new strategic era, heralding a profoundly
changed world-political landscape. Cover image: Ludwig Meidner,
'Apocalyptic City', 1913. (c) Ludwig Meidner-Archiv, Judisches
Museum der Stadt Frankfurt am Main
