Plagued by runaway debt, a shrinking economy, and environmental catastrophes to rival Chernobyl, the United States has been retracing the trajectory of the Soviet Union in the early 1980s toward national bankruptcy and political dissolution. By comparing a collapse that has run its course to one that is now unfolding, Dmitry Orlov holds a unique lens up to America's present and future. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e As Orlov's predictions continue to come true, his writing continues to gain mainstream acceptance. This revised and updated edition of \u003ci\u003e Reinventing Collapse \u003c\/i\u003e examines the circumstances of the demise of the Soviet superpower and offers clear insights into how we might prepare for the events that are unfolding here. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Orlov gives no quarter to prophets of doom and gloom, finding plenty of room for optimism, if only we focus our efforts on personal and cultural transformation instead of trying to perpetuate an impossible status quo.
