Publisher's Synopsis
This book discusses the Neoconservative political class (Neocons)'s repeated war-driven policies in the United States and its catastrophic impacts on peace, international law, and the welfare of people both in the United States and abroad. Two war-driven scenarios are selected as case studies because of their trajectories: the proxy war in Ukraine in Ukraine and the war in Gaza. These two scenarios uncover the Neocons disregard to the rule of law and international relations, their indifference to human suffering, and the allocation of U.S. resources for advancing the Neocons' political and economic interests. Although the specific in each scenario differ, the overall approach is the same, which is the drive for global hegemony based on a debunked political theory stemmed from the failed Trotskyite ideology of the early 20th Century, and the manipulation of the political system in the United States to advance such discredited political ideology.
Keywords: Neoliberalism, Neocons, Hegemony, Mainstream Media, Global South, the West, War, Regime Change, Rules-Based International Order, International Relations.
