Irreconcilable Differences is an attempt to peer into the future in
the light of recent and ongoing events. Author David Cole proposes
that Americans may be living through the beginning of the
devolution of the United States of America - a development that may
unfold after our lifetimes, although it could happen sooner. Cole
surveys examples of devolutionary political developments around the
world in recent decades. He offers a running commentary on recent
polemics, as commentators in the press consider the evidence of
American political decline and decay. He speculates as to exactly
what form a devolved United States might take. The conjecture is
that a point could be reached at which Americans conclude that an
amicable breakup is to be preferred on the whole to an attempt to
continue to live under the same tent. Is contemporary America an
example of the Aristotelian phenomenon of "coming into being and
passing away"?
