In The Second World, scholar Parag Khanna, chosen as one of Esquires 75 Most Influential People of the TwentyFirst Century, reveals how Americas future depends on its ability to compete with the European Union and China to forge relationships with the Second World, the pivotal regions of Eastern Europe, Central Asia, South America, the Middle East, and East Asia that are growing in influence and economic strength.Informed, witty, and armed with a travelers intuition for blending into diverse cultures, Khanna depicts secondworld societies from the inside out, observing how globalization divides them into winners and losersand shows how China, Europe, and America use their unique imperial gravities to pull the secondworld countries into their orbits. Along the way, Khanna explains how Arabism and Islamism compete for the Arab soul, reveals how Iran and Saudi Arabia play the superpowers against one another, unmasks Singapores inspirational role in East Asia, and psychoanalyzes the secondworld leaders whose decisions are reshaping the balance of power.
