Andrzej Lubowski is a renowned Polish journalist and economist. In 1982, after the crackdown on Solidarity, he left Poland for Stanford University as a senior Fulbright scholar and professional journalism fellow. He later joined the Woodrow Wilson Center, earned an MBA at Berkeley, and spent almost twenty years in senior strategy positions at Citibank and Visa. After the transition to democracy in Poland, he began contributing to the country’s leading newspapers and newsmagazines, and is the author of a book in Polish on America’s strategic strengths and weaknesses. His newest book, The Year 2040: Is The West Destined to Lose?, was published in Poland in 2013 by Znak.
“The background to decisions that influenced the fate of the world; required reading for everyone who wants to understand how the thinking of a great strategist inspired and shaped changes in the global policies of the most powerful superpower.” —Adam Daniel Rotfeld, former foreign minister of Poland“This is a colorful story about a fascinating man—big politics, big characters, and real emotion. As I read this book I felt more and more furious. After all, I had been in Washington. Why did it never enter my mind to write a book about Brzezinski? Too late. Andrzej Lubowski has written what needed to be written, the way it needed to be written.” —Tomasz Lis, editor-in-chief of Newsweek (Poland) and former Washington correspondent for Polish TV “This book shows us what international politics would have looked like if America had not had Brzezinski.” —Stefan Bratkowski, writer, honorary president of the Society of Polish Journalists “Excellent—written in lively prose and full of anecdotes, yet fully documented and grounded in reality, it reads effortlessly.” —Newsweek (Poland)
