Book •
Wang Huning's "America Against America" offers a critical analysis of the American political system, focusing on the role of special interests and their influence on policymaking.
The book argues that the dominance of these groups leads to gridlock and prevents effective long-term strategic planning.
Huning's perspective is shaped by his extensive research and time spent studying in American universities.
The book's central thesis is that the US political system is susceptible to capture by powerful interests, hindering its ability to address complex challenges.
This analysis resonates with broader discussions about the challenges facing late-stage democracies.
