Opis

The society of the USA, the powerful leading nation of the Western world, is deeply divided, and moral and intellectual confusion sweeps across the country. The author lived in the USA during the terms of the 44th and 45th US presidents - two political leaders, diametrically different in character, ideology, and statesmanship - and observed political and social processes and decisions in real-time. His analysis describes the steadily increasing ideological disharmony of politics and society and the anarchic agitation of radical forces. He reveals the propaganda performance of the media in constructing illusory realities in the Euro-Atlantic area. From the fundamental level of political and moral philosophy, Micewski questions the dictates of scientific rationality as an exclusive model for dealing with social and political challenges and calls for a revival of a comprehensive framework of meaning that increasingly incorporates the metaphysical and spiritual dimensions of human consciousness. He also places deep emphasis on developments in national security and international relations and offers the reader the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the genesis of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the events in Libya and Syria, and the relevant geostrategic contexts. His critical review offers solutions and ideas for an overdue course correction and underscores why the rebirth of adequate conservatism is essential to the survival of this nation and Western civilization. In view of the upcoming presidential elections in November 2024 and beyond, this book provides important insights into the political system of the United States and Euro-Atlantic relations. It sheds light on current dispositions of the political camps and the major media conglomerates.
