The accidental superpower

Ten Years On
Book • 2014
In this book, Peter Zeihan analyzes how the hard rules of geography are impacting American commitment to free trade, the global aging crisis affecting markets and capital supplies, and the unique advantages of the American economy, particularly its rapid approach to energy independence.

The book highlights how these factors are overturning the global system and ushering in a new order.

It emphasizes the strategic gambit made by the United States after World War II, the role of the U.S.

Navy in enforcing a global arrangement, and how America's geography and youth population position it favorably in a de-globalizing world.
