Ich versteh’s nicht. Da schreiben Spiegel Online und die Netzeitung über den neuen Bericht „Global Trends 2025 – A transformed World“ des US-amerikanischen National Intelligence Council und geben keinen Link zum Bericht an. Also, hier ist er.
Und hier einige Ergebnisse des Berichts, der amerikanischen Politikern bei ihren künftigen Entscheidungen helfen soll sind:
- The whole international system—as constructed following WWII—will be revolutionized. Not only will new players—Brazil, Russia, India and China— have a seat at the international high table, they will bring new stakes and rules of the game.
- The unprecedented transfer of wealth roughly from West to East now under way will continue for the foreseeable future.
- Unprecedented economic growth, coupled with 1.5 billion more people, will put pressure on resources—particularly energy, food, and water—raising the specter of scarcities emerging as demand outstrips supply.
- The potential for conflict will increase owing partly to political turbulence in parts of the greater Middle East.
