Jean-Francois Richard, First Vice President of the World Bank, has been writing about globalization issues since 1993.
In his opinion, in the coming decades the world will change dramatically under the influence of two powerful factors.
The first of them is a population explosion, which entails global negative consequences (epidemics, environmental pollution, lack of fresh water, etc.).
The second is the development of the so-called new economy, which gives hope for the successful overcoming of these problems.
Richard’s book was published shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, and the course of subsequent events has already confirmed his correctness on many issues, which makes his other forecasts be treated with great attention.
