Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzeźinski (Polish: Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzeziński, [ˈzbiɡɲef bʐɛˈʑiɲski]) : (born March 28, 1928, Warsaw, Poland) is a Polish-born American political scientist, geostrategist, and statesman who served as United States National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter from 1977 to 1981. Known for his hawkish foreign policy at a time when the Democratic Party was increasingly dovish, he is a foreign policy "realist" and considered by some to be the Democrats' response to Republican Henry Kissinger.
Geostrategy
Brzeźinski laid out his most significant contribution to post–Cold War geostrategy in his 1997 book "The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives". He defined four regions of Eurasia and in which ways the United States ought to design its policy toward each region in order to maintain its global primacy. The four regions are:
Europe, the Democratic Bridgehead
Russia, the Black Hole
The Caucasuses and Central Asia, the Eurasian Balkans
East Asia, the Far Eastern Anchor
In this book Brzeźinski claims America is the first, only, and last truly global "superpower": "America is now Eurasia's arbiter, with no major Eurasian issue soluble without America's participation or contrary to America's interests." In his subsequent book, The Choice, Brzeźinski updates his geostrategy in light of globalization, 9/11, and the intervening six years between the two books.
It is from his book, "The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives", that the song "United States of Eurasia" is largely based upon and inspired by.
