Getting to grips with the overlapping geopolitical, economic, and
political crises faced by Western democratic societies in the
2020s. The 21st century has brought a powerful tide of
geopolitical, economic, and democratic shocks. Their fallout has
led central banks to create over $25 trillion of new money, brought
about a new age of geopolitical competition, destabilised the
Middle East, ruptured the European Union, and exposed old political
fault lines in the United States. Disorder: Hard Times in the 21st
Century is a long history of this present political moment. It
recounts three histories - one about geopolitics, one about the
world economy, and one about western democracies - and explains how
in the years of political disorder prior to the pandemic the
disruption in each became one big story. It shows how much of this
turbulence originated in problems generated by fossil-fuel
energies, and it explains why as the green transition takes place
the long-standing predicaments energy invariably shapes will remain
in place.
