About the Book

'Insightful' Financial Times 'Instant and powerful illumination' Adam Tooze On November 8 2016, Donald Trump won the American presidential election, to the surprise of many across the globe. With Trump as Commander-in-Chief of the most powerful country on earth, Americans and non-Americans alike were left wondering what this would mean for the world. It has been claimed that Trump's foreign policy views are impulsive, inconsistent and that they were improvised on the campaign trail. However, drawing on interviews from as far back as 1980, leading historians Charlie Laderman and Brendan Simms show that this assumption is dangerously false. Revealing that Trump has had a consistent position on international trade and America's alliances since he first considered running for president in the late 1980s, his foreign policy views have deep roots in American history. For this President, almost every international problem that has confronted the United States can be explained by the mistakes of its leaders. Yet, after decades of dismissing America's leaders as fools and denouncing their diplomacy, Trump now has to prove that he can do better. This insightful and compelling book reveals the world view that Trump brings to the Oval Office, illuminating how that world view was formed, what might result if it is applied to foreign policy and the potential consequences for the rest of the world. An essential read.

Review :
‘The most comprehensive account yet of Trump’s thinking over the years.’ ‘Highly recommend this study of the development of Trump’s foreign policy world view … Instant and powerful illumination!’ ‘Insightful … historians Charlie Laderman and Brendan Simms have done political scientists and foreign policy establishments a big favour.’ ‘In this insightful study, Laderman and Simms expose the contours of Donald Trump’s thinking on foreign policy and explore its roots in US history since 1945. This book refutes the widespread view that Trump can simply be dismissed as an improviser and a showman. Essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the Trump presidency and what it means for the rest of us.’ ‘The unthinkable has happened: Donald Trump is now President of the United States. We can condemn, dismiss, and ridicule him. But it makes more sense to understand him. This short book uses his lifeworld and his own language to do so, and offers an insightful and compelling account of his world view, and especially his view of foreign affairs. For anybody who wants to know what makes Trump tick and how he is likely to behave this is an absolute must read.’ ‘As the historians Charlie Laderman and Brendan Simms show in this new book, since the 1980s Trump has developed a consistent world view. It is highly critical of the dominant US global strategy since 1945 of building and maintaining a liberal capitalist international order.’ ‘This book does a great service in identifying the genesis of President Trump’s world view, based on his words, and considering its likely impact on the future of American foreign policy and the Western alliance.’
