520 _a"In this collection, thirty top scholars in international politics ask: did Trump weaken the liberal international order, or did he simply expose problems that were always lying beneath the surface? Did he ruin the U.S. reputation by treating politics as a zero-sum game, or did he simply confirm foreign suspicions that the American-led order was always a faȧde for American power? And, will the Trump presidency have lasting consequences for international politics, or will we remember it as a bizarre and temporary detour? The essays explore these crucial theoretical questions about the liberal international order as well as the impact of major world events, including the rise of global movements for women's rights, racial justice, and environmental protection, and a global pandemic that put international cooperation under tremendous strain. Contributors also explore the prospects for the new Biden administration, looking at what diplomatic history and international relations theory tell us about the future of the U.S. in the world, and what tools and insights can the security studies community provide to make sense of this evolving situation. What assumptions about a range of topics - including alliances, multilateralism, nuclear policy, regional dynamics, international law, civil-military affairs, escalation, human rights, and globalization - demand attention in the aftermath of the 2020 election? This book does not provide mere instant analyses of the 2020 election; instead, it seeks to put the Trump presidency in historical and theoretical context and to chart out the possibilities for what comes next"--
