How to Rule The World

The Coming Battle over the Global Economy

By Mark Engler


"Mark Engler offers a timely reminder that before Bush's boots and bombs there was Clinton's corporate 'consensus'... He then makes a case that there lies a third choice: democracy. Impressively researched and sharply argued, How to Rule the World is an essential handbook not for the few who do rule the world but for the many who should."

After Empire

The Birth of a Multipolar World

By Dilip Hiro


After Empire sketches the contours of a complex world system emerging during the late imperial phase of U.S. history and examines the events that prepared the ground for the world to move from the tutelage of the sole superpower, America, to a multipolar, post-imperial global order. Realistic and nuanced in its assessment of global politics, shorn of an ideological bias or soft corner for the United States, After Empire abounds in unsettling and stimulating insights on politics, history, hard and soft power, political economy and democracy.
