Dmitry Orlov wrote the book on comparative superpower collapse, and I highly recommend it. "Reinventing Collapse" is the title. A broader look at societal collapse generally is his"The Five Stages of Collapse".
He has later written that one of the stages he expected to happen last, cultural collapse, is pretty much a fait accompli in the USA. The USSR never reached that stage.
