The difference, James, isn't that I like Putin (I don't), but that framing the breakdown of the post-Cold War neoliberal order as a problem, in the first instance, of national security plays into some of the most invidious assumptions of both the American Empire and the European Union's architects in which the main point is maintaining primacy--economic, military, or (in the U.S. especially) both. You know, the stuff that's rendering the entire planet uninhabitable.
