The New Global Order oleh Himja Parekh

The New Global Order is an endeavour to provide a multidisciplinary angle on the world we live in, to find solutions for a peaceful way forward. History is the witness that every time new borders are drawn, the seeds of future conflict are sown. The book maps the shifts in power over history across the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, France & Germany from the 12th century through World Wars 1 & 2 to the present. It also discusses the way the power shifted from the UK to the US post World War 2 that led to the Cold War, the fall of USSR, the rise of China as well as Indias rise as a counter to China in the times to come. The book is divided into 6 parts. Part I, set in the Middle East discusses how the seeds of modern day chaos were sown. Part II, dedicated to the War on Terror discusses American imperialism. Part III, Eurasia discusses the dichotomy of Europe, which has the potential to rule the world but has been unable to shed its east vs. west divide. Part IV focuses on the emerging giant China. Part V-India discusses the Indian foreign policy & its evolution, the strategic achievements of Indias new foreign policy & concludes by drawing up the road ahead for it to become an Asian powerhouse. In Part VI, the book discusses the current global order & the contrasts between the Beijing & the Washington Consensus, BRICS & the tools important for the transformation of The New Global Order. They are Narco-Terror, Petrodollar, Climategate, Water Wars, Virtual Water, Surveillance State, Military-Industrial Complex & most importantly, Communism. Communism will gradually erase the sovereign boundaries & lead to The Global Corporate State via the mega trade deals of TPP/TTIP & TISA. The book also talks about the trends that will serve as the flashpoints of this transition & concludes by taking the reader through the 3 founding pillars of the Global Geopolitical Order, the Global Geoeconomic Order & the Cartelization of Resources.
