America’s Future: A Prosperous, Peaceful Nation, or a Bankrupt, Violent Empire?
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of the US's pursuit of supremacy over stability in international relations.
The US hypothetically seeking a constructive role among nations rather than seeking dominance over them is for a nation that wants to be stable. The current US strategy is driven by a desire to be supreme. Historically, when a great power chooses supremacy over stability, the transition to a new international order usually happens through a major crisis - like a world war - rather than a “grand bargain.” References: NYT - U.S. STRATEGY PLAN CALLS FOR INSURING NO RIVALS DEVELOP (1992): https://www.nytimes.com/1992/03/08/world/us-strategy-plan-calls-for-insuring-no-rivals-develop.html Forbes - The Countries With The Most STEM Graduates [Infographic] (2017): https://www.forbes.com/sites/niallmccarthy/2017/02/02/the-countries-with-the-most-stem-graduates-infographic/ Beijing Review - U.S. National Security Strategy 2025: The Pursuit of Primacy Repackaged (Dec. 2025): https://www.bjreview.com/Opinion/Pacific_Dialogue/202512/t20251215_800425745.html The New Atlas - DEEP DIVE: New US "National Security Strategy" is Repackaged Wolfowitz Doctrine (Dec. 2025): https://youtu.be/IBny7B--uE0?si=r_Pdt3Lf1ek96_nW NYT - The Separation: Inside the Unraveling U.S.-Ukraine Partnership…
