The rapid rise of China and India is reshaping our global economic
and environmental systemsOCoraising major issues of stability,
governance, and sustainability.
This book develops a framework that shows the interdependence
between economic size, trade, finance, technology, environment,
security, and global governance. Author Carl J. Dahlman uses this
framework to provide data on the speed of global power shifts and
to trace the implications for nations worldwide. Analyzing this
critical moment in historical context, he offers insights into our
most pressing concerns.
Specifically, China and India's unchecked growth has the potential
to ignite trade, resource, cold, and conventional wars. Moreover,
these nations could set in motion monumental challenges related to
climate change. The text warns that the current international
governance system is not up to the challenges of defusing these
frictions. Major powers, including China and India, must do more to
address the gathering storm. Developing sustainable economic and
social relationships will be a most difficult charge, but the cost
of putting off reforms will be lower global welfare. Dahlman ends
the book with starting points for change.
