Descrição do livro

For generations, America was more than the world’s most powerful country. It was the place where the future appeared to happen.

People tolerated its inequalities, insecurities, brutal work culture, and weak public protections because the promise seemed unmatched: opportunity, reinvention, prosperity, and access to a world unavailable anywhere else.

That bargain is changing.

Today, the United States remains extraordinarily wealthy, technologically dominant, militarily powerful, and culturally unavoidable. Yet increasing numbers of people—inside and outside the country—look at the life it offers and reach a quieter conclusion:

I don’t want to be there.

In The Unwanted Superpower, Nikola Muckajev examines the widening distance between America’s power and its appeal. From health care bureaucracy and car-dependent isolation to remote work, global competition, private substitutes for public life, and the fading glamour of the American dream, the book asks a question more unsettling than whether America is collapsing:

What if it remains powerful enough never to collapse, but ceases to be a place people dream of joining?
