This volume presents a comprehensive analysis of global future
scenarios and their impact on a growing, shared culture. Ever since
the end of the Cold War, a diverse range of future concepts has
emerged in various areas of academia-and even in popular
journalism. A number of these key concepts-'the end of history,'
'the clash of civilizations,' 'the coming anarchy,' 'the world is
flat,' 'soft power,' 'the post-American century'-suggest what could
become characteristic of this new, interconnected world. Ulf
Hannerz scrutinizes these ideas, considers their legacy, and
suggests further dialogue between authors of the 'American
scenario' and commentators elsewhere.
