Welcome to Trumplandia: National Populism in America (ePub)

Welcome to Trumplandia: National Populism in America is a collection of essays written between May 2016 and October 2019 about the transformation of America, a united nation that has become more divided than ever. Some pundits predict that if things don't change another civil war could occur. Have we reached a point of no return? Hopefully, America is mature enough to learn from its mistakes and avoid incurring further scars as its history continues to unfold.

"Tiberiu Dianu is a specialist in law, politics and post-communist societies… His latest book, titled Trumplandia, is a welcome addition towards understanding current events, Washington's international policy, and the present American society; a society polarized and divided as it has not been since the Civil War… Mr. Dianu makes in-depth assessments of important events in today's America and achieves not only fine descriptions, but as an expert in the field proves to have a 'gut feeling' for them. For example, the author understands, and at the same time feels, the meaning of rising patriotism and nationalism as a shield against a yet not fully understood impact of globalization."
