Description
A Leading Historian's Blueprint for Saving the Rules-Based World Order from Trump's Tariff Tsunami
Have you ever felt alarmed as trade wars pit nations -- and people -- against each other?
Do you worry that rising protectionism could undermine decades of peace and prosperity?
Are you searching for clarity amid growing authoritarian threats to global democracy?
For over eighty years, the rules-based world order has underpinned unprecedented peace, economic growth, and the spread of democracy.
Yet today, that architecture is crumbling.
Rising tariffs, eroded alliances, and emboldened autocrats threaten to pull us back into a darker age of conflict and competition.
In From the Atlantic Charter to Trump's Tariff Tsunami, historian Steve Jones charts the extraordinary journey from Churchill and FDR's secret 1941 meeting off Newfoundland -- which birthed the Atlantic Charter -- to the seismic trade battles of the 21st century.
Drawing on decades of scholarship and incisive original research, Jones exposes how unilateralism, populist disruption, and economic coercion have hollowed out the institutions we once took for granted -- and he equips you with a clear roadmap to repair them.
Inside this indispensable guide, you'll discover:
? 8 Foundational Principles: How the Atlantic Charter's vision gave birth to the UN, NATO, GATT/WTO, and more.
? 10 In-Depth Case Studies: From the Smoot-Hawley warning of the 1930s to today's soybean farmers caught in the Tariff Tsunami.
? Global Power Shifts: The rise of China's state-capitalist model and Russia's weaponized energy strategies.
?? Modern Authoritarian Playbooks: How populist leaders exploit polarization, undermine norms, and erode democratic safeguards.
? Forward-Looking Solutions: Actionable strategies for revitalizing multilateral cooperation, collective security, and fair trade.
? Data-Driven Insights: Clear charts, timelines, and expert analysis that make complex geopolitics accessible to everyone.
Plus, this edition includes exclusive bonus materials -- detailed resource guides and planning tools to help you take real-world action.
Worried it's too complex? Think again.
Steve Jones guides you step by step, in clear, engaging prose -- no prior expertise required.
Don't let the ideals of 1941 slip away.
Grab your copy to arm yourself with the knowledge and tools to defend democracy, global trade, and peace in an age of disruption.
