The past 70 years has been the era of “Pax Americana,” a period of relative stability thanks to the influence and ballast provided by the United States. But with Russian expansion and a rising China, how long can it last? www.GreatDecisions.org

An excellent kickoff topic. I anticipate a very lively discussion. I am a baby boomer, born in 1942, so I have lived through Pax Americana. There have been a dearth of great decisions made in those 70 years, and I am feeling the frustration of the changes we are seeing in today's world. So, this discussion topic is a great way to initiate a personal investigation into how our foreign policy decisions effect the world.
Russia’s miserable invasion of Ukraine shows that there is still no one who could possibly approach the United States. The US position of full spectrum dominance is as strong as ever. Given it’s polarized political system, America truly is its own worst enemy.
Could u elaborate on America's polarized political system and how that makes america its own enemy?
You're comment didn't age so well Skippy!
It also shows how USA's influence is becoming weak after the post cold-war.
How "Foreign Policy Association" puts the episode on TH-cam and in the same time sells it on Amazon ? It makes me wonder is it the same content of the one that Association sells on amazon ?
Pax Americana, a true golden age of mankind. With over half it population being lifted out of poverty in less then 50 years.
Where the First Worlds Food issue being obesity instead of starvation. To bad its ending everyone prepare for the new age!
It ended sooner than we think.
RIP Pax Americana (December 1991 - March 2020)
Nah
December 1991 - February 24th 2022
Pax Romana, then Pax britainnica, and now Pax Americana. Never felt better to be born an American what a world we live in 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇲.
I prefer pax Mongolica
Pax ottomanica
I prefer Pax Iberiana
I am German. Pax Amercana is not dead. But it's time for review on strategy, take lessons from other nations history books. American way of life is "sexy", attractive, but not for all. Respect for old generation only within family is the backbone in many countries, countries were U.S. was knocked out, like Vietnam, Afghanistan. Longterm win-win deals were pushed away from "making money", "time is money" tactics and hegemony vanity. I think eight years maximum presidecy is not enough to build solid foreign partnerships, fundamental right of Freedom was dead or uncredible after 9/11. American power can make it and overcome economic and military force down with smart solutions. After cold war it would have been time to gear down. Recognize things that have gone bad or wrong. ( Take my advice, I don't use it anyway)
death to america
Good ideas! I passed them along to Biden, he's in support. Keep an eye on the news.
That's interesting, but more current would be an episode on the (accelerating) demise of pax americana.
@donald johnson I somewhat agree in that it's not something I look forward to, but rather that it's an increasingly unavoidable state of affairs.
Sunni soldiers of Saddam Hussein were rendered jobless after the American crackdown on Iraq and especially Baath party. They formed the deadly ISIS with additional Saudi funding. The lacunae of power created the monstrous group.
Long live Pax Americana.
"The American peace"
Lol tell that to the 3 million vietnamese you killed. Or the over half a million Indonesians slaughtered in the CIA coup. Or the people of East Timor, or Palestine, or to Patrice Lumumba, or Chile, or Iraq, or iran, or libya, or afghanistan, or guatemala, or nicaragua, or yemen, or el salvador.....
There will be a "Moses" that sent by god to overthrow any single tyrannical regime...
can we go back to 1945 and get pax germania instead?
So many Talking Heads! Why am I not a Talking Head, Momma?
I see as the way of history.
Pax Romana: Roman Empire fell
Pax Britannica: British Empire fell
Pax Americana: American Empire...
If this is supposed to irritate Americans then it's quite hilarious.
Only stupid people think that a superpower, the United States, won't fall in any given time. All civilizations rise and fall including USA. It is not something that is shocking to many.
It is the joy and pleasure of being in the top that counts.
@@jeffersonmcomen7226 There's a lot of stupid people in America, but no it's not intended to irritate Americans. More of an understanding that I won't make the same mistake the other empires had in the past and recognize Americas mortality. It's something that previous iterations didn't recognize, they simply believed they'd last forever, or at least a lot longer than what they did. I am American and hurts knowing that this is our fate.
I got a feeling America will fall as the main super power in the world soon with Russia and China rising and Americans just really not liking having troops everywhere
@@thatsaboat2882 Russia's GDP is lower than Texas.
While China's Trade is heavily limited to sea routes which can be in check by surrounding asian Nations. Forget USA the alliance of neighboring Asian countries could topple Chinese.
None of the 2 would be superpower. It might reshift to Europe.
The U.S.A can lose influence on the world or not, I don´t know the future. But the historical context it´s different and also the way things are carried on by the powers you named.
Today is 16 th august 2021 and taliban has captured Afghanistan.
I have a feeling that I’m living the generation that’s gonna see the down fall of Pax Americana
There never was one lmao constant war and instigation destroying country’s for no reason then claiming it was a “war on terror” causing the crash of the worlds economy
Hopefully we are
not for another thousand years at least
@@jhonklan3794lol. Delusional
We're seeing it now. God opened the door of Britain and America in the last 400 years to make way for the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Now that door is closing, a sign that He is coming very, very soon.
Stop within the foreign wars, Arkansas before Afganistán
Fuck Arkansas.
We wait in the shadows
Trolling
Finally, some clarity by POTUS!!
Comments didn't age so well !!😊
Great Pax Americana!
The end of pax americana is comming, And we might as well prepare for it.
yes but the US will stay the most powerful nation in the world for at least another 10-15 years
Okay prep for pax Asiana or PAX Sinicia or pax Russica
@@sadiqahmed4143 “Pax Russica” will never happen
It ended the day Americans openly allowed the government to put literal masks over their mouths. My entire life goal has now shifted to get out of this place.
@@jakedubs the whole world did the same. In 2020 every nation was wearing a mask
Really goofy stuff here spreading an ultra sanitized view of the last 70 years
Všechno Americká hra a lži,
You're system is mutch worse look at you're standard of living and when you're hungry tell me who is lieing comrad !!😊
RIP 15/08/2021
Why ?
@@lohht7g ON 15/08 Taliban take over Afghanistan. New players are emerging to become global leaders. no longer monopoly of America in world about leadership that's why to rest in peace PAX Americana.
In the end, Afghanistan is for the Afghans. No foreign country has the right to interfere in its affairs and rule... and the Taliban is not that big a bad thing as it is in the media.
@@lohht7g I don't argue with the fool sorry
@@sanketpatel5137 We lost in Vietnam but Pax Americana still happened. Afghanistan is a speed bump, not a brick wall
Capitalism is in its late stage, duh.
you literally signed up for the gov to put a mask on your face. the ultimate sign that you are worth no more than a muzzled dog.
it's just imperialism copy from pax Romania and pax Britannia
Strange they didnt mention trump much, since he might be the biggest threat to pax americana.
Sir Lancelot Mcbutt this is from 2017.
Uhh hea is making peace in the middle east right now
@@noahpalmer709 peace is actually against pax Americana
And why?
@@waitwhat3547 dumbest shit I’ve ever heard
Pax Americana is not dead. And now that Russia is causing problems with Ukraine it is needed now more than ever.
Russia’s poor performance in Ukraine shows it can’t even dream of approaching America’s military might. Not to mention the exposed full spectrum dominance over the global economy. Not even China dares to show outright support for Putin.
@@ArendJanV yup. Might makes right.
"Pax Americana took place during the Cold War" lmao are these guys supposed to be experts?
Yes the cold war was never a war, during the time the US prospered
And Rome as competing with Persia and China in their prime.
@@memezoffuckery3207 Competing with China?? 🤣🤣 two civilzations barely meet.
Do you know what a cold war is?
Tragic to see how far the US has fallen in the last 4 years under Trump. Hopefully we will see America return shortly to a country that actually upholds the values of democracy that it used to hold so dear. Vote wisely America.
Heh only an idiot would see a rise as a loss.
A year later most of america regrets they're decision voting biden an democrat leaving most americans with out any good reason to believe any party or the media.
You have no idea what you are talking about! But you soon will see what happens when a democrat leads the nation.
this comment aged like milk.
Both orange peel and great great gramps sucked in one way or another, I can tell clear as day, and Im fif fucking teen
Pax Americana never happed
It did.
Beautiful piece of propaganda 💝
😂
Someone is coping
@@yourfriendlyneighborhoodcl4824 indeed
God damn right it is 🦅🇺🇲
lol pax americana is over
More western propaganda
@donald johnson That’s good, you should have westerners calling out their governments and medias propaganda.
Good
There is so much bullshit in this video lol. Pax Americana for the next 200 years, at least.
I bet you wish.
you'll be speaking spanish by then
Pax America?? What the hell is that? Pax Romana ok Pax Britannica ok you got a point. Pax Americana? Yeah right
Pax Americana, the time period since the end of WW2, has been the most peaceful, prosperous 75 years in human history. There are always wars and suffering, but compared to past human history, the last 75-80 years when the United States has been the most powerful nation in the world has been more peaceful and prosperous
When the ussr and the us didn’t go to war because the us prevent the ussr from expanding and later having to deal with an expanding ussr conventional or nuclear
@@conductingintomfoolery9163 you must be an American
@@commissarhunt8749 yes and? Rather have Soviet or America imperialism? I would say nether
@@AW-zk5qb lol sure every power says that under it's rule there was never a more prosperous times
