El fin del mundo es solo el comienzo

Over generations, everything has gotten faster, better, and cheaper. We've gotten to the point where, once you decide you want it, almost anything you want can be delivered to your home in a matter of days, if not hours. A small group of countries made this possible; but now they have lost interest in keeping it running. All this was artificial. All of this was temporary. All this has come to an end. In his book The End of the World is Only the Beginning, author and geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan maps out the next world: a world in which countries or regions will have no choice but to make their own goods, grow their own food, secure their own energy, fight their own battles, and do so with shrinking and aging populations. The list of countries that make it all work is smaller than we think. This means that everything about our interconnected world, from how we make products to how we grow food, to how we keep lights on, to how we transport things and how we pay for it all, is about to change. In his usual style, instead of yelling "fire!" In the global geo-economic theater, Zeihan points to the accumulation of matches, gasoline, and dynamite in the hands of an ignorant audience, suggesting that we may want to notify the fire brigade before it's too late. An end of the world and, at the same time, a world that is beginning. Zeihan takes readers on an illuminating (and slightly terrifying) journey, filled with foresight, wit, and his trademark irreverence.
