A New York Times Bestseller! 2019 was the last great year for the
world economy. For generations, everything has been getting faster,
better, and cheaper. Finally, we reached the point that almost
anything you could ever want could be sent to your home within days
- even hours - of when you decided you wanted it. America made that
happen, but now America has lost interest in keeping it going.
Globe-spanning supply chains are only possible with the protection
of the U.S. Navy. The American dollar underpins internationalized
energy and financial markets. Complex, innovative industries were
created to satisfy American consumers. American security policy
forced warring nations to lay down their arms. Billions of people
have been fed and educated as the American-led trade system spread
across the globe. All of this was artificial. All this was
temporary. All this is ending. In The End of the World is Just the
Beginning, author and geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan maps out
the next world: a world where countries or regions will have no
choice but to make their own goods, grow their own food, secure
their own energy, fight their own battles, and do it all with
populations that are both shrinking and aging. The list of
countries that make it all work is smaller than you think. Which
means everything about our interconnected world - from how we
manufacture products, to how we grow food, to how we keep the
lights on, to how we shuttle stuff about, to how we pay for it all
- is about to change. A world ending. A world beginning. Zeihan
brings readers along for an illuminating (and a bit terrifying)
ride packed with foresight, wit, and his trademark irreverence.
