Drawing comparisons to empires past, Johnson explores in vivid detail the likely consequences of US dependence on a permanent war economy, and what it will mean when the globe's sole "hyperpower" is no longer capable of paying for the vaulting ambitions of its leaders - and becomes the greatest hyper-debtor of all time. In his stunning conclusion, Johnson suggests that the crisis of a financial breakdown could ultimately prove to be the only path to a renewed nation.

En su trabajo más ambicioso hasta la fecha, Thomas L. Friedman muestra los movimientos tectónicos que demuestran que hemos entrado en una era de aceleración vertiginosa - y explica cómo vivir en ella. Tres son las fuerzas aceleradoras que están cambiando nuestro planeta: la ley de Moore (tecnología), el mercado (globalización) y la madre naturaleza (cambio climático y biodiversidad). Estos aceleradores están cambiando cinco reinos clave: el lugar de trabajo, la política, la geopolítica, la ética, y la comunidad.

L'eredità della crisi che ha sconvolto l'economia globale a partire dal 2008 è stata pesante: crescita inadeguata, disoccupazione, disuguaglianze nella distribuzione dei redditi, crollo degli investimenti pubblici. Le contromisure adottate dai governi sono state nel complesso inefficaci. Si è evitata l'implosione del sistema finanziario, ma si sono sottovalutate sia la natura strutturale della crisi, sia le gravi conseguenze sociali e politiche che essa avrebbe provocato.

La violencia vino del Norte revela el factor decisivo detrás de la catástrofe que desde 2007 padece México: la política armamentística de Estados Unidos. Sin el acceso masivo a esos arsenales, la masacre y la corrupción nunca habrían alcanzado la escala actual. Este no es un tráfico clandestino, sino un flujo facilitado por una «arquitectura de la permisibilidad» en Estados Unidos. El libro rastrea cómo la desregulación sistemática de armas en aquel país no solo permitió esta catástrofe, sino que la buscó.

The Second World War was the most destructive conflict in history. It left Europe in ruins, its economies severely damaged and millions of its people facing malnutrition, its political systems shaken if not destroyed. Yet three decades later its economies had recovered; it largely appeared politically stable; its inhabitants generally were well housed and well fed. Then at the end of the 1980s, the postwar settlement disintegrated, and a new chapter in Europe's postwar history had begun.

China ya no es solo la fábrica del mundo, también es su mayor banquero. Con su enorme reserva en divisas podría comprar el planeta. Y ya ha empezado a hacerlo. Esto significa que el gobierno chino tiene, en pleno siglo XXI, un poder de control inaudito sobre los países occidentales. Las economías y gobiernos del llamado Primer Mundo necesitan sus inversiones para salir de la crisis. También los resultados de las multinacionales más poderosas dependen de China. Ni en sus sueños más ambiciosos Mao Tse Tung hubiera podido imaginar algo así.
