Donald Trump's worldwide furor

by Norbert F. Tofall


Donald Trump is a highly successful destroyer of "politically correct" taboos, public bans on speaking and mainstream narratives. Trump's deal-making, however, pushes "chess democracy" (Friedrich August von Hayek) to its peak.

Because under the structural conditions of modern society, problems can only be solved by general and abstract rules, not by deals. In foreign, security and trade policy, Trump's mania to control complex systems by orders and orders has already undermined the power position of the United States of America.
