Us vs. Them: The Failure of Globalism by Ian Bremmer

4.0

For a short bird's eye view of the entire geopolitical landscape, it's quite impressive. From Brazil to Russia to Hungary to China, Bremmer shows the politics of the Us vs. Them. This is not a detailed analysis of anything; it's a telegram. The book also manages to cover the imminent changes in economy, i. e., the advent of artificial intelligence and the disruptions that will follow. I was interested in what seemed to be a (typically American) optimistic last chapter, "How to Solve This", but, no, Bremmer is bleak, despite himself. "It's getting worse before it can get better" is the best he can muster.
