Global Consequences of Russia's Invasion of Ukraine: The Economics and Politics of the Second Cold War

di Grzegorz W. Kolodko (Autore)

Springer International Publishing AG, 2023

This book highlights the geopolitical and economic consequences of the  Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The author, a key architect of Polish eco- nomic reforms and the most frequently cited economist from post-Com- munist countries, shares new insights into the causes and mechanisms  of the Second Cold War. Written in an unorthodox, bold and lucid style,  the book raises provocative issues and provides convincing answers to  some of the most difficult questions, such as who the true beneficiaries  and interest groups behind the war are, and what their motives and con- flicting goals are.  The book also introduces readers to the greatest challenge of our time,  climate change, and explores the long-term effects of the current arms  race and rearmament spiral on global warming. This interdisciplinary  book, which also addresses the challenges of inflation, mass migrations  and clashes between democracy and authoritarianism, will appeal to  anyone interested in the contemporary geopolitical shifts triggered by  the Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, but also in the dynamics and directions  of the evolution of the new cold war.
