In 1991, the United States was the only global superpower. It seemed that the 21st century, like the 20th, would belong to America. Then came the stock market bubble, the costly foreign unilateralism of the younger Bush presidency, and the financial catastrophe of 2008. Meanwhile, China was rising and the Middle East was awakening politically. Today it is clear that America is vulnerable—to domestic and international decline and unregulated greed.
Speaking from decades of experience, Brzezinski considers the implications of the changing distribution of global power, ponders why America’s global appeal is waning, speculates on the likely geopolitical consequences if America declines by 2025 (will China assume America’s central role in world affairs?), and describes a vision of a resurgent America: responsive to challenges, strategically deliberate, and historically enlightened in its global engagement with the new East.

Immediately you can spot a thoroughbred politician and a great analyst. It is no wonder that in Carter's time the USSR was dealt with. It is a great pity that there are currently no such statesmen - not only in the USA and other countries, but even in Russia. A strategic vision - unfortunately accurate, but in the worse version of the actions of politicians - and let us hope that it will not come true until the end.
