Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Estamos iniciando el camino hacia la Tercera Guerra Mundial? La pregunta no es ociosa; la historia nos muestra otros ejemplos del inicio de grandes guerras cuando el hegemón del momento empezaba a declinar y surgían otras fuerzas que le arrebataban poder y mercados. Y este es hoy el caso: EEUU ha iniciado un claro declive en las últimas décadas, mientras otras potencias emergían con fuerza. China, pero también los BRICS, están desplazando el centro del mundo hacia Oriente, algo que EEUU ni quiere ni puede permitirse, pues a largo plazo ese desplazamiento puede acabar con el poder de su moneda, el dólar, y por tanto con su posición de superpotencia dominante a nivel mundial. De hecho, podría considerarse que la guerra empezó hace tiempo, pero que se ha acelerado con los acontecimientos que han desembocado con la guerra en Ucrania y, más recientemente, con el genocidio que ha llevado a cabo Israel en Gaza con el respaldo de EEUU, además del conflicto permanente en el Sahel y las tensiones en torno a Taiwan. Y a todo ello hay que agregar que en medios militares y políticos, tanto rusos como occidentales, se empieza a hablar con cierto desparpajo de la posibilidad de un conflicto nuclear, y se pasa a valorar la magnitud de la catástrofe como eventualidad posible. La pregunta, pues, es pertinente. ¿Estamos emprendiendo el camino hacia una Tercera Guerra Mundial? En este libro diversos autores responden a esa pregunta, y tratan de delimitar cuán cerca estamos de ella. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardback. Condition: New. By the late 1970s, scholars and journalists were quick to proclaim the dawn of a new era--the Age of the Pacific. The 1980s--with the economic growth of Japan and the Four Dragons, the industrialization of several Southeast Asian states, the growth of new industries on the West Coast of North America and decline of industry in the U.S. Midwest and Northeast, and the collapse of centrally planned economies--seemed to confirm this prognosis. Yet, despite consensus on these issues, there are still questions regarding the future directions of an impending Pacific Century.This contributed volume considers those questions from a world-historical perspective, with one chapter from the viewpoint of a friendly critic of that perspective. The work opens with an introductory section, including Palat's introductory overview and a consideration of the amorphous nature of the term Pacific Rim. Part II continues to analyze the changing patterns of the relational networks along Asia's Pacific parimeters as integral parts of the ongoing restructuring of the capitalist world-economy, while Part III examines the individual trajectories of two Asian giants--India and China. The final section explores how changes in the patterning of production processes have contoured the nature of antisystemic movements in the 1980s.…
