Barnett - Apocalyptic Global Changes Are Coming - Who Will Rule The Global Middle?","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":3570,"description":" America needs to redefine itself as the world deals with the price tag of globalization, and it's time to address the symptomatic churn.\nThomas P.M. Barnett is an American military geostrategist and the author of 'America's New Map: Restoring Our Global Leadership in an Era of Climate Change and Demographic Collapse', and he shares his gritty and eye-opening take on the future reevaluation of the American strategy.\nIn the wake of globalization, America finds itself at the edge of a critical strategic intersection, where the middle class is unhappy, and the old, white traditions of America are in jeopardy. Gen Z and Boomer ideologies are at a hard impasse, demographics are shifting, and the global economic drivers of the future are uncertain, initiating a need for a new American strategy and identity that is fit for the future. It's time for America to adapt to reality and move forward, away from the octogenarian, ‘culture wars mindset’ of the past, and to upgrade its brand to be competitive on the world stage. The coming events may feel apocalyptic, but if we reopen the kingdom of The United States, we may stand a chance.\nShow Notes:\n‼️ The USA and China are on a collision course. 00:56\n📘 The Pentagon’s New Map book: a vocabulary about sending US military forces in crisis response since the Cold War. 03:56\n👉 “Globalization was ultimately pacifying, but when it first hits, it’s entirely destabilizing.” 08:16\n🚩 Whenever the middle class emerges, elements from the left and the right want to control that: demographic collapse. 11:27\nSeptember 11th was a reordering principle: unifying a fear-threat reaction. 17:16\n⚡ What are the new prairies, and who is going to ‘sell’ new identifiers to younger generations? 18:32\n🌱 ‘Bulldog tenacity’ with younger generations: climate change as the big structural and economic driver going forward. 21:22\n⚠️ The business adopting to the economy: the least racist superpower wins. 26:02\n✌🏾 Choose color or choose country: 2024...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/xZiqIzNmJvl3Qd09qE4Y3_VUMRdncVsqr64fugQ7YMo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ0MDEwLzE2OTQ0/NDg4MzItYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
