I talk through the highlights of the Global Trends 2040: A More Contested World
How it differs from previous GTs - 5 scenarios! and regional forecasts focused on climate.
Renaissance of democracies - US and democratic allies thrive and solve problems
A World Adrift - Sluggish growth for everyone and problems are unaddressed - and China tries to expand influence
Separate Silos - 'Spheres of Influence' -type, and problems are also unaddressed
Competitive Coexistence - US and China learn to work together and solve problems, although they also compete
Tragedy and Mobilization - EU, China and other international orgs come to together to solve problems.
I talk about the wonderful concept diagrams - pg 69 on societal dynamics; 79, on national dynamics and demands on governance, and 91, on the global order of the report.
