The Post-American World: Release 2.0 Tapa dura - 2011

Descripción de contraportada

An essential update of the bestselling global phenomenon

A New York Times Notable Book of the Year

In this new edition of his international blockbuster, Fareed Zakaria continues to explore the shifting role of the United States in the rapidly changing landscape of world affairs. The tilting balance of power, which Zakaria coined in the original edition of The Post-American World as the "rise of the rest," has proceeded more swiftly than anyone could have anticipated, aided by the financial crisis and the surprising determination and continued growth of emerging markets such as Brazil, China, and India. Zakaria tracks this quickly moving phenomenon and reports on the latest economic, technological, and even military developments that will shape our global future.

"Fareed Zakaria...has written a minor masterpiece full of pragmatic, informed intelligence...."Thought-provoking and important..."--Jason Burke, The Guardian (UK)

"A provocative and often shrewd take that opens a big picture window on the closing of the first American century and the advent of a new world."--Michiko Kakutani, New York Times

"This is a relentlessly intelligent book that eschews simple-minded projections from crisis to collapse...to remind this faltering giant of its unique and enduring strengths."--Joseph Joffe, New York Times Book Review
