The New Asian Hemisphere: The Irresistible Shift of Global Power to the EastFor centuries, the Asians (Chinese, Indians, Muslims, and others) have been bystanders in world history. Now they are ready to become co-drivers. Asians have finally understood, absorbed, and implemented Western best practices in many areas: from free-market economics to modern science and technology, from meritocracy to rule of law. They have also become innovative in their own way, creating new patterns of cooperation not seen in the West. Will the West resist the rise of Asia? The good news is that Asia wants to replicate, not dominate, the West. For a happy outcome to emerge, the West must gracefully give up its domination of global institutions, from the IMF to the World Bank, from the G7 to the UN Security Council. History teaches that tensions and conflicts are more likely when new powers emerge. This, too, may happen. But they can be avoided if the world accepts the key principles for a new global partnership spelled out in The New Asian Hemisphere. |

It was the West that triggered the Asian March to Modernity, so it should be cheering this positive new direction of world history. Instead, leading Western minds are filled with dread and foreboding. I hope to explain this reversal.

The first and most likely, indeed probable, scenario is the March to Modernity. It is truly our good fortune that the odds favor its realization. The second scenario is much less happy, but less likely: the Retreat into Fortresses.

ODERNITY The March to Modernity is probably going to be the single most important trek in human history. If it succeeds, it will ensure a far more peaceful, stable, and prosperous world. “Modernity” is a strange notion.
