- Description
- It is not difficult to find why, for conservatives, liberals and radicals, the topic of the new world order, which was raised by George H.W. Bush after the end of the Cold War, continues to be on the agenda: 9/11; the continuing occupation of and disturbances in Iraq; the scandals of Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay; al-Qaeda and the War on Terror; the United States and Europe; the United States and China; the future of the United Nations; and, not least, global climate change and recurrent environmental catastrophe. To make something a topic, however, is not to provide a concept of it.
