So begins Fareed Zakaria's important new work on the era we are now entering. Following on the success of his best-selling <I>The Future of Freedom</I>, Zakaria describes with equal prescience a world in which the United States will no longer dominate the global economy, orchestrate geopolitics, or overwhelm cultures. He sees the "rise of the rest"&#151;the growth of countries like China, India, Brazil, Russia, and many others&#151;as the great story of our time, and one that will reshape the world. The tallest buildings, biggest dams, largest-selling movies, and most advanced cell phones are all being built outside the United States. This economic growth is producing political confidence, national pride, and potentially international problems. How should the United States understand and thrive in this rapidly changing international climate? What does it mean to live in a truly global era? Zakaria answers these questions with his customary lucidity, insight, and imagination. 2126220 5 5 2008 The Post-American World total:1370|5:313|4:631|3:336|2:76|1:14| 1370 5263 2972 420 2 7 false false Mon Aug 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Jul 24 09:48:50 -0700 2008 Sun Dec 07 09:28:48 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 3 false false Sat Sep 06 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 11 05:53:22 -0700 2008 Thu Sep 11 05:54:11 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 5 false false Sun Feb 15 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Oct 23 14:24:25 -0700 2008 Sun Feb 15 09:16:55 -0800 2009 more...]]> 5 2 false false Mon Jun 16 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 17 12:48:52 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 17 12:53:01 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 2 false false Fri Jun 13 19:44:04 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 09 13:03:45 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 19:44:04 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Thu Nov 20 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 27 12:06:29 -0800 2008 Thu Nov 27 12:40:09 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Thu Jun 12 16:59:58 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 19 13:45:37 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Mon Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 08:14:52 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 08:19:13 -0800 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Sun Oct 05 18:07:53 -0700 2008 Sun May 25 13:43:47 -0700 2008 Sun Oct 05 18:07:53 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 1 false false Wed Jul 02 08:11:28 -0700 2008 Wed Jul 02 08:16:00 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 1 false false Mon Jun 02 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri May 30 17:25:39 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 02 12:01:21 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Feb 22 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 09:06:01 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 09:18:08 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Sun Oct 04 09:28:17 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 09:28:38 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Jul 29 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 18:24:39 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 18:25:28 -0700 2009
