Shadow World: Resurgent Russia, The Global New Left, and Radical Islam

America is at war — and not just in Iraq and Afghanistan. This fight is a global contest among the United States, radical Islam, a resurgent Russia, and a virulent new Left coming to power in Latin America and stalking the corridors of power around the world, including the United States.

These three enemies of America are separate, but they cooperate — and in Shadow World, Chandler shows how. He explains:

• Why “post-Communist” Russia is not really “post-Communist” at all, but represents an insidious new strategic threat to the United States.
• How “cultural communism” has rejuvenated the radical Left’s prospects around the world.
• Why American-style democracy is losing out to Castro and Hugo Chavez-style communism in Latin America.
• How radical Islam has allied itself to the New Left — and why this makes radical Islam more dangerous than before.

Shadow World reveals, in a way no other book has done, the new strategic realities of the post-Cold War, post-9/11 world. Provocative, insightful, thorough, it is essential reading for those who want to see the twenty-first century as America’s century, and not the century of her enemies.
