THE END OF THE WORLD IS JUST THE BEGINNING - PE...

A New York Times Bestseller! 2019 was the last great year for the world economy. For
generations  everything has been getting faster  better  and cheaper. Finally  we reached the
point that almost anything you could ever want could be sent to your home within days - even
hours - of when you decided you wanted it. America made that happen  but now America has lost
interest in keeping it going. Globe-spanning supply chains are only possible with the
protection of the U.S. Navy. The American dollar underpins internationalized energy and
financial markets. Complex  innovative industries were created to satisfy American consumers.
American security policy forced warring nations to lay down their arms. Billions of people have
been fed and educated as the American-led trade system spread across the globe. All of this was
artificial. All this was temporary. All this is ending. In The End of the World is Just the
Beginning  author and geopolitical strategist Peter Zeihan maps out the next world: a world
where 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 it all with populations that are both
shrinking and aging. The list of countries that make it all work is smaller than you think.
Which means everything about our interconnected world - from how we manufacture products  to
how we grow food  to how we keep the lights on  to how we shuttle stuff about  to how we pay
for it all - is about to change. A world ending. A world beginning. Zeihan brings readers along
for an illuminating (and a bit terrifying) ride packed with foresight  wit  and his trademark
irreverence.
