Fault Lines - How Financial Collapse Could Reshape the World - Geopolitics, #1

This book is conceived as a prospective geopolitical study. It does not claim to predict the precise timing of a collapse, nor does it attempt to define the exact nature of the resulting order. Rather, it seeks to illuminate the pathways through which systemic financial breakdown could occur, to identify structural vulnerabilities within the United States, the European Union, and the broader global economy, and to explore the cascading consequences for political systems, societies, and international relations. By integrating economic analysis with the study of global power dynamics, the book offers a framework through which policymakers, strategic decision-makers, and informed citizens can understand, anticipate, and mitigate risks that could otherwise destabilize the international system. In this sense, the work is both a warning and a guide, emphasizing strategic foresight and preparedness in the face of potentially existential threats.
