Neoliberal Militarism: From Pax Americana to Pax Transatlantica

The bomb changed everything except the way we think, Albert Einstein lamented. Nuclear weapons are destabilizing, not stabilizing. Security cannot only be defined militarily.
All people yearn for freedom and self-determination.
Countries are despoiled of their sovereignty and resources when they are redefined by neoliberal totalitarians as their sphere of influence.
