"Conventional analysis suffers from a profound failure of
imagination. It imagines passing clouds to be permanent and is
blind to powerful, long-term shifts taking place in full view of
the world." - George Friedman
In his long-awaited and provocative new book, George Friedman turns
his eye on the future - offering a lucid, highly readable forecast
of the changes we can expect around the world during the
twenty-first century. He explains where and why future wars will
erupt (and how they will be fought), which nations will gain and
lose economic and political power, and how new technologies and
cultural trends will alter the way we live in the new
century.
The Next 100 Years draws on a fascinating exploration of history
and geopolitical patterns dating back hundreds of years. Friedman
shows that we are now, for the first time in half a millennium, at
the dawn of a new era - with changes in store, including:
- The U.S.-Jihadist war will conclude replaced by a second
full-blown cold war with Russia.
- China will undergo a major extended internal crisis, and Mexico
will emerge as an important world power.
- A new global war will unfold toward the middle of the century
between the United States and an unexpected coalition from Eastern
Europe, Eurasia, and the Far East; but armies will be much smaller
and wars will be less deadly.
- Technology will focus on space - both for major military uses and
for a dramatic new energy resource that will have radical
environmental implications.
- The United States will experience a Golden Age in the second half
of the century.
Written with the keen insight and thoughtful analysis that has made
George Friedman a renowned expert in geopolitics and forecasting,
The Next 100 Years presents a fascinating picture of what lies
ahead.
