The Western liberal democratic world order, which seemingly
triumphed following the collapse of communism, is looking
increasingly fragile as populists and nationalists take power in
the United States, Europe and elsewhere, as the momentum of
democratization in developing countries stalls, and as Western
liberal establishments fail to deal with economic stagnation,
worsening political polarization, social inequality, and migrant
crises. At the same time there is a shift of economic power from
the West towards Asia. This book explores these critical
developments and their consequences for the world order. It
considers how far the loss of the West's power to dominate the
world order, together with the relative decline of US power and its
abdication of its global leadership role, will lead to more
conflict, disorder and chaos; and how far non-Western actors,
including China, India and the Muslim world, are capable of
establishing visionary policy initiatives which reconfigure the
paths and rules of economic integration and globalization, and the
mechanisms of global governance. The book also assesses the
sustainability of the economic rise of China and other non-Western
actors, explores the Western liberal democratic order's capacity
for resilience, and discusses how far the outlook is pessimistic or
optimistic.
