Chaos in the Liberal Order: The Trump Presidency and International Politics in the Twenty-First Century - Softcover
Donald Trump’s election has called into question many fundamental assumptions about politics and society. Should the forty-fifth president of the United States make us reconsider the nature and future of the global order? Collecting a wide range of perspectives from leading political scientists, historians, and international-relations scholars, Chaos in the Liberal Order explores the global trends that led to Trump’s stunning victory and the impact his presidency will have on the international political landscape.
Contributors situate Trump among past foreign policy upheavals and enduring models for global governance, seeking to understand how and why he departs from precedents and norms. The book considers key issues, such as what Trump means for America’s role in the world; the relationship between domestic and international politics; and Trump’s place in the rise of the far right worldwide. It poses challenging questions, including: Does Trump’s election signal the downfall of the liberal order or unveil its resilience? What is the importance of individual leaders for the international system, and to what extent is Trump an outlier? Is there a Trump doctrine, or is America’s president fundamentally impulsive and scattershot? The book considers the effects of Trump’s presidency on trends in human rights, international alliances, and regional conflicts. With provocative contributions from prominent figures such as Stephen M. Walt, Andrew J. Bacevich, and Samuel Moyn, this timely collection brings much-needed expert perspectives on our tumultuous era.

Chaos in the Liberal Order is a sober guide for turbulent times. It covers an impressive range of issues and perspectives, giving insight into what’s new―and what’s not―in the Trump era. A must-read for anyone looking for context on the direction of American foreign policy in the Trump administration, and beyond. (Elizabeth N. Saunders, George Washington University)
A much-needed book that puts the Trump Administration into a proper international and historical perspective. It not only enlightens the reader about current affairs, but also helps us better understand some of the deeper causes for the crisis of liberal democracy. (O. A. Westad, Harvard Kennedy School)
The contribution of this book lies in its timeliness, creativity, and boldness in addressing a still evolving and changing Trump foreign policy. The essays address such important concerns as the future of liberal hegemony, domestic public opinion, and the impact of leaks and fake news on trust in the media. The authors provide a depth of analysis and historical perspective that ensures this book will provide insights into the forces underlying the Trump phenomenon for some time to come. (Deborah Welch Larson, University of California, Los Angeles)
The quality of the writing is excellent and the perspectives of each author differ substantially. (H-Diplo)
