A Desordem Mundial/ the World Disorder ― O Espectro Da Domina誽o; Guerras Por Procura誽o, Terror, Caos E Cat嫳trofes Humanit嫫ias /Us Hegemony, Proxy Wars, Terrorism and Humanitarian Catastro

This book offers a historical analysis of the geopolitical and geoeconomic competition between the USA and Russia, which has recently heated up again due to the eastward expansion of NATO. The analysis departs from an exploration of the USA’s foreign policy and geopolitical ambitions by illustrating the influence of Wall Street and the military-industrial complex on the country’s political decision-making.
