This book analyses the factors that led to the Cold War between the liberal democratic capitalist bloc led by the United States and the communist, socialist bloc led by the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) after the two world wars. NATO and the Warsaw Pact were military and ideological competitors that fought against one another to keep a check on each other’s strength. With the Soviet Union’s demise, the United States became the world’s lone arbiter in terms of geopolitical and economic stability.
China’s rise to prominence as the world’s industrial hub may be traced back to the United States and other Western countries’ conception and promotion of globalisation to access emerging markets. It became brutally apparent that the entire globe depended on China for practically all manufactured goods when the global supply chain from China broke down during the COVID-19 epidemic.
Because of outsourcing, which was made possible by developments in IT and telecom, the services sector has moved to developing countries like India. As a result of China’s economic rise, the West and the United States have seen their dominance erode due to a loss of industrial and service sector jobs.
Additionally, the idea of nation-state sovereignty and democratic rule became watered down due to globalisation. The result was the emergence of international companies and the corporatisation of democracies. Understanding how the dynamics of the fall of the democratic model of governments, corporatisation, and the rise of China will play out in defining the developing new international order is the goal of this book.
