ハラリさんの分析。なるほど。
みんな彼の考え方が分からず右往左往してたけど、これならしっくりきます。
「トランプ氏の解決策は単純だ。弱者は強者のいかなる要求にも従えばよい、というものだ。
この考え方では、紛争は弱者が現実を受け入れない場合にのみ発生する。したがって、戦争は常に弱者の責任ということになる」

ドナルド・トランプ大統領の政策は、自由主義的秩序を覆し、ゼロサムゲームの視点から国際関係を再構築する傾向にある。ユヴァル・ノア・ハラリ博士によると、トランプは各国を要塞国家とみなし、協力よりも国益を追求する姿勢を強調している。このアプローチは、軍拡競争や国際的混乱を招く可能性が高く、気候変動やAIの台頭などの地球規模の問題への対処には、国際的な協力が不可欠である。
