The Fall of the US Empire - and Then What?

Introduction

The Fall of the US Empire - and Then What?
Successors, Regionalization or Globalization?
US Fascism or US Blossoming?


This book explores the why, how, when and where of the present decline and fall of the US Empire, based on a theory of synergizing contradictions used in 1980 to predict the fall of the Soviet empire. It then maps possible futures for the US and the world, with a blueprint for a desirable global future.
