Disorder: Hard Times in the 21st Century is a long history of this present political moment. It recounts three histories—one about geopolitics, one about the world economy, and one about western democracies—and explains how in the years of political disorder prior to the pandemic, the disruption in each became one big story. It shows how much of this turbulence originated in problems generated by fossil-fuel energies, and it explains why, as the green transition takes place, the longstanding predicaments energy invariably shapes will remain in place.

Narration?!
Reviewed: 10-20-22
The story is fascinating, if somewhat hard to follow without the text in front of you. The narration, however, is extremely irritating. The voice narrator has no sense whatsoever for the pronunciation of foreign names/terms.
