by John C. Hulsman

2 November 2021

In this paper we discuss:

  1. The post-WWII political equilibrium and its pillar parties;
  2. The US Republican Party as it was built by Dwight David Eisenhower;
  3. The CDU designed by Konrad Adenauer;
  4. The Tory party led by Churchill and Thatcher;
  5. The difference with the current leadership by Trump, Laschet and Johnson;
  6. How personalities have substituted institutions in the new world order; and
  7. Why this constitutes a political risk as large as the external challenges from China and Russia.
