Assessing the eight years of Barack Obama’s presidency, we have to speak more about the period his presidency feel onto, rather than him. The fact that a black politician became US President seemed to open a new era in the US and even the world history considering the position of the United States in the modern world. Today we can see increasingly more qualitative shifts, but not all of them are perceived positively. The world becomes unstable and hardly predictable. All the vectors of development which until recently have seemed natural and clear, are at least questioned today. All attempts to give trustworthy medium-term forecasts, find reliable and effective economic management tools and create a predictable world order based on American leadership after the “Cold War” turned out unsuccessful at the close of the 20th century.
