The post american world

 

 

Les signes de la puissance des états unis is a question that comes up regularly in geography and students writing the French BAC like this question. And there is nobody capable of talking about this than the author of The post american world-fareed zakaria. This book is not a thesis on geopolitics but a thorough analysis of facts or what we call determinants such as:

-the military might

-the number of phd's

-skills, openness, innovation, opportunity

-and the importance of indicators like birth rate, the work force and corporate governance. Using these parameters the conclusion of the author on the role of the united states is that of a default power... pending the time, countries like india, china will catch up with the country that has a global responsibility. This last observation  is that of the defunct daily times when reporting the landslide victory of richard nixon in the 7O's
