The Future Is Asian
Simon & Schuster, 2019
Was ist drin?
Western countries were once central to economic relationships in Asia. Not anymore.
Recommendation
Asia is far more than just China, as strategic adviser Parag Khanna makes clear in this comprehensive look at the region. Though he illustrates how China is a prime mover in Asian development, Khanna especially delves into the multiplying economic linkages among Asian nations that are producing a complex web of intraregional relationships. Asia is now looking to Asia for its future growth, Khanna writes, and cities that to Western executives and investors may today seem exotic backwaters, like Vladivostok or Baku, may soon become global centers of commerce and trade.
