Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Title: Empire at the Edge: Oil, War and the Struggle for a New World Order Description: >In early 2026, coordinated American and Israeli airstrikes against Iranian nuclear facilities escalated into full-scale regional war. Missiles rained on Israeli cities. Tankers burned in the Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices shattered records and Iran crossed the nuclear threshold. Empire at the Edge is not a prediction of these events. It is an examination of the deeper forces that made them inevitable. This book reveals the hidden architecture of global power: the oil routes that fuel industrial civilization, the petrodollar system that sustains American financial dominance, and the imperial overstretch that has left the United States fighting indecisive wars while rivals rise. Drawing on decades of geopolitical history-from the 1953 coup in Iran, to the rise of China, from the creation of BRICS to the erosion of dollar hegemony - Empire at the Edge shows how energy, finance and geography shape the conflicts that dominate today's headline. Inside, you will discover: - Why the petrodollar system is cracking under the pressure of the 2026 war- How Iran became a nuclear threshold state and what that means for the world- The strategic logic behind Israel's alliance with the United States- Why the Strait of Hormuz is the most dangerous chokepoint on earth- How China and Russia are reshaping the Middle-East without firing a shot>Written for readers who want to understand not just what is happening, but why, Empire at the Edge is essencial reading for anyone concerned with the future of global power, the fate of the Middle East, and the end of the American century. If you see the geopolitical upheaval and are unsure of what is actually going on but do not fully understand geopolitics, this book will help you demistify the headlines and you will start to see the whole picture. The multipolar world is no longer coming. It is here!
