Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book is not a forecast. It is a structural analysis of a society under sustained internal pressure. The Coming Collapse examines the economic, political, social, and ecological forces shaping the current trajectory of the United States and the broader global system. Drawing on empirical data, historical precedent, and systems theory, it approaches collapse not as a singular catastrophic event, but as a gradual, uneven process-one that unfolds quietly, often disguised as normal life. Rather than locating failure in any single cause or moment, the book traces converging patterns of institutional fragility: debt saturation, declining trust, social fragmentation, resource strain, and systemic inertia. It shows how modern societies preserve the appearance of continuity even as their underlying capacities erode, and why this gap between narrative stability and structural reality is itself a defining feature of late-stage systems. This is not a work of speculation or ideology. It does not predict dates, offer prescriptions, or indulge in apocalyptic imagery. Its purpose is diagnostic: to clarify conditions as they are, while that clarity is still possible. The volume concludes with Scarecrow: The Age of Performed Reality, a complementary cultural analysis that examines how performance, narrative management, and institutional theater sustain the illusion of normalcy amid decline. Together, the two works form a coherent framework-linking structural breakdown with the psychological and cultural mechanisms that make it so difficult to recognize in real time. For readers seeking to understand why so much feels unstable, fragmented, or misaligned with official narratives, The Coming Collapse offers a sober and credible lens on the world as it stands.…
