This book presents an overview of the main changes in the United States' foreign policy in response to the transformations in the international order in the last decades. If, after the end of the Cold War, the USA invested in the universalization of market economy and in the strengthening of its military supremacy, new developments demanded reorientations in the country’s foreign strategy. The controversial military interventions in Afghanistan and Iraq, the 2008 economic crisis, the rise of the BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India and China) and the rise of right-wing populism altered the global political landscape and demanded new responses from the most powerful country in the world. This volume brings together nine essays in which the founding member of the World International Studies Committee, Sebastião C. Velasco e Cruz, analyzes how the United States’ foreign policy responded to the growing challenges posed by this changing international order, discussing topics such as: The evolution of the American geopolitical strategy after the end of the Cold War How US foreign policy reacted to challenges to security and dilemmas of the international orderBarack Obama's foreign policy and world politicsDonald Trump and the rise of populism in the USA US relations with BRICs and Latin America The United States in a Troubled World: Essays on Interpretation will be of interest to international relations and political science researchers both within and outside the United States.

Grounded in a critical theoretical perspective, this book offers a dense and original interpretation of the structural tensions and processes that led to the breakdown of the neoliberal international order established in the post–Cold War era under the auspices of the United States. The book brings together a collection of essays written over a span of 25 years that present an in-depth analysis of two central dimensions of the concept of order that prevailed during this period: the establishment of a global economy governed by general norms designed and managed according to multilateral principles; and the institution of liberal democracy as a prescriptive model for political organization and a criterion for international legitimacy.In the first chapters, the author identifies inherent contradictions within these two dimensions that made their tendency toward crisis predictable from the outset. The book then turns to an analysis of the processes leading to the present moment, in which the foundations of the liberal order envisioned after the Cold War are openly challenged by rising social forces on a global scale and by the official policies of its principal architect and guarantor, the United States, leading the World Trade Organization (WTO), the most emblematic institution of the economic globalization project, to a deadlock. Finally, the book concludes with chapters dedicated to study the conditions that gave rise to the “Trump phenomenon” and to its significance for the United States and the world. The United States and the Unmaking of Neoliberal Order will be of interest to researchers and students in the fields of Political Science and International Relations.
