For my Lit Circle book I read Fareed Zakaria's The Post American World.
I looked around for another book in my class that was closely related to mine but couldn't find on I thought was that close. However, when I looked at some of the books in the other classes I noticed that one group was reading The Political Mind by George Lakoff. I read a blog written by Doug Cummings. He talks about how Lakoff writes about how politcs are changing and that it is important for liberals to not live in the past and rather use more modern politics. This is an example of changing the status quo in the geo-political landscape. That is the main idea of The Post American World. Zakaria believes the power in the world is shifting away from being dominated by the US. He believes te U.S. shouldn't live in the past and try to continue with the status quo. He believes (as Lakoff does for liberals) that they must act to modernize and go with what is currently happening.
