Losing an empire and finding a role -- It's not our fault -- Biggest doesn't equal best -- The rise of the rest Is good for the West -- Will greater wealth destroy the planet? -- The folly of fortress thinking -- Global nomads -- Policies at home to gain from abroad -- Sustaining global progress -- Life near the top.
America is in decline, and the rise of the East suggests a bleak future for the world's only superpower: so goes the conventional wisdom. But what if the traditional measures of national status are no longer as important as they once were? What if America's well-being was assessed according to entirely different factors?
