New Releases by Fareed Zakaria

The author of the bestselling "The Future of Freedom" describes a world in which the U.S. will no longer dominate the global economy. He sees the "rise of the rest" as the great story of our time, and one that will reshape the world.

Ce livre n''annonce pas le déclin de l''Amérique. Il se penche plutôt sur l''ascension des autres : Chine, Inde et Brésil. À l''avenir, les États-Unis joueront moins un rôle de leader que d''arbitre et de négociateur. Et, pour cela, l''Amérique devra transformer en profondeur sa stratégie planétaire. L''Empire américain, l''heure du partage nous livre les clés pour comprendre les premiers gestes d''ouverture de la nouvelle administration américaine. Fareed Zakaria balaie au passage l''idée d''une planète aujourd''hui plus dangereuse qu''hier. L''intégrisme musulman est ainsi ramené à ses justes proportions : un phénomène géopolitique d''une ampleur bien plus réduite que naguère les totalitarismes européens ou la guerre froide. Il faut donc penser un monde avec les États-Unis, mais où l''Amérique n''est plus seule en tête.

Politieke en economische analyse van de opkomst van China en India, en de plaats die de Verenigde Staten in deze nieuwe wereldorde zullen innemen.

Analisa a política global ao refletir sobre a relação entre democracia e liberdade. Mostra como a democracia liberal tem de ser mais eficaz atualmente, comentando casos recentes como o desastre das democratizações africanas, a revolução iraniana, o Afeganistão e a ocupação do Iraque.

A modern classic that uses historical analysis to shed light on the present, The Future of Freedom is, as the Chicago Tribune put it, "essential reading for anyone worried about the promotion and preservation of liberty." Hailed by the New York Times as "brave and ambitious...updated Tocqueville," it enjoyed extended stays on the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post bestseller lists and has been translated into eighteen languages. Prescient in laying out the distinction between democracy and liberty, the book now contains a new afterword on the United States''s occupation of Iraq. "Intensely provocative and valuable," according to BusinessWeek, with an easy command of history, philosophy, and current affairs, The Future of Freedom calls for a restoration of the balance between liberty and democracy and shows how politics and government can be made effective and relevant for our time.

Interroge la crise mondiale actuelle qui voit démocratie et liberté se diviser et s''opposer au profit de régimes autoritaires aux apparences de légalité. Montre que l''avènement du modèle occidental de la démocratie par de nombreux pays se limite aux signes formels et institutionnels de la liberté sans endosser la primauté de la loi et de la personne qui leur donnent sens.

What turns rich nations into great powers? How do wealthy countries begin extending their influence abroad? These questions are vital to understanding one of the most important sources of instability in international politics: the emergence of a new power. In From Wealth to Power, Fareed Zakaria seeks to answer these questions by examining the most puzzling case of a rising power in modern history--that of the United States. If rich nations routinely become great powers, Zakaria asks, then how do we explain the strange inactivity of the United States in the late nineteenth century? By 1885, the U.S. was the richest country in the world. And yet, by all military, political, and diplomatic measures, it was a minor power. To explain this discrepancy, Zakaria considers a wide variety of cases between 1865 and 1908 when the U.S. considered expanding its influence in such diverse places as Canada, the Dominican Republic, and Iceland. Consistent with the realist theory of international relations, he argues that the President and his administration tried to increase the country''s political influence abroad when they saw an increase in the nation''s relative economic power. But they frequently had to curtail their plans for expansion, he shows, because they lacked a strong central government that could harness that economic power for the purposes of foreign policy. America was an unusual power--a strong nation with a weak state. It was not until late in the century, when power shifted from states to the federal government and from the legislative to the executive branch, that leaders in Washington could mobilize the nation''s resources for international influence. Zakaria''s exploration of this tension between national power and state structure will change how we view the emergence of new powers and deepen our understanding of America''s exceptional history.
