“…For realists, the liberal order, like preceding international orders, is an expression of the interests of dominant powers, specifically the United States (Allison 2018;Mearsheimer 2019). For those who evaluate the LIO positively, a principal concern is not exploitation of the LIO by the United States but disengagement by the United States from an order that relies on the indispensable nation (Kagan 2018). Since the rise of anti-globalization movements in the 1990s, the liberal order has been pilloried from the left as an enabler of economic injustice.…”

The labels 'crisis' and 'turning point' are used freely to describe international politics. In the decade since the global financial crisis of 2008-2009, and even more frequently in the past four years, arguments that the world is not at a turning point have become difficult to find. The debates have often been confusing, however, suggesting both fundamental and sudden ruptures as well as recent recognition of long-term structural changes. Reflecting on a century that began with the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Nations and is closing with a pandemic and the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, the effects of conflict, peacemaking, and economic turmoil on global order can certainly be identified. Long-term trends and trajectories, inflected by those episodes, have been equally influential: the dissolution of empires -from colonial to Soviet -and the proliferation of sovereign states; the integration of Europe and the rise of military and economic powers outside Europe; and a rapid growth in the institutions of regional and global governance.Arguments for a break in those trajectories in global governance can be summarized as the end of the Bretton Woods moment, that crucial reordering at the midpoint of the last century. Three distinct candidates can claim identification as this latest turning point: the end of the liberal international order; the end of the dominant position of the United States and its allies in the global order; and, finally, the relative decline of formal global institutions as constituents of contemporary global governance. Those three alleged transformations in the contemporary international order are linked, but they should 1This is an open access work distributed under the Creative Commons Attributio n-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Unported (https:// creativecommons .org/ licenses/ by -nc -nd/ 4 .0/ ).

“…Along these lines and in the broader context of security and trade, historian/commentator Robert Kagan sees the rules-based international order as "a historical anomaly" made possible by U.S. leadership, which is now collapsing, "returning the world to its natural state -a dark jungle of competing interests, clashing nationalism, tribalism and self-interest." (Kagan, 2018).…”

“…The existential threats to the planet from a failure to rise to this challenge are by now well documented. 70 The WTO and the world trading system that it governs will by necessity play a role in meeting this challenge. The only question is whether the WTO's role will be seen as obstructionist, or rather whether it can be accommodating to the world's attempts to solve the problem of climate change or even serve as an active contributor to the solution.…”

“…Varios analistas han coincidido en calificar esta orientación como un verdadero terremoto en la historia reciente de la política exterior de la superpotencia. Por décadas, el liderazgo estadounidense se había orientado hacia la construcción de un orden internacional liberal cimentado en la seguridad colectiva, el libre mercado, la promoción del Estado de derecho, la democracia y la defensa de los derechos humanos (Kagan, 2018;Daalder & Lindsay, 2018). El cambio no tenía precedentes: en casi todas las áreas importantes de la política internacional, Trump representó una desviación fundamental, respecto no solo a su predecesor demócrata y a los anteriores mandatarios republicanos, sino también, de todo el consenso bipartidista que había existido desde el fin de la Segunda Guerra Mundial (Simms & Laderman, 2017).…”

La política exterior de Donald Trump puso en tela de juicio varios de los fundamentos del orden internacional liberal en la que, por décadas, la superpotencia había respaldado su liderazgo. El presente trabajo indaga acerca de los factores que explican este fenómeno, a partir del análisis de las transformaciones políticas y económicas que ha tenido la sociedad estadounidense, y de la manera como ellas se vieron reflejadas en las principales decisiones de esa administración.
