A graduate student's mind dump of information and disembodied quotes about rising countries and the struggle for their place in the world. Not my favorite, but a good overview of the emerging world order from a geo-economic perspective. A good companion book is Robert Kagan's The Return of History and the End of Dreams.

Libro del 2019 che va letto in fretta (e con attenzione) perché fotografa una situazione in divenire. Si tratta di molte pagine, spesso ridondanti, piene di dati che restano abbastanza sulla superficie ma che riescono comunque a tratteggiare l'orizzonte di un cambiamento che ha implicazioni storiche, culturali, sociali, economiche (Khanna si sofferma senza dubbio soprattutto su queste ultime).

The author, a foreign policy strategist , presents the reader with a kaleidoscopic view of Asian expansion both economic and demographic with copious footnotes. Whereas the United States Government operates with an outmoded “big stick” mode setting up obstacles to its asian partners the asian mode is pragmatic and strategic. China is not the only player changing the landscape. Key components such as transportation, building infrastructure, technical training and loans (not without strings attached) are pushing the frontiers of the smaller or less developed nation states in this mix. This is a must read for anyone interested in Asia’a future. Unfortunately it was written before the Cov-19 pandemic but that should not diminish reading the tea leaves for the future.… (altro)
