A bold account of the decline of the West’s economic supremacy and radical solutions to reverse the drift.
Bestselling author Dambisa Moyo gives a fresh insider’s perspective on the erosion of Western power over the past 50 years. She examines how the West’s flawed financial decisions and blinkered political and military choices have resulted in an economic and geopolitical seesaw that is now poised to favour the emerging world.
Moyo is uniquely positioned to examine the West’s errors and the techniques the emerging countries used to rise on the global economic stage:
As a former economist and banker she gives a new perspective on the dramatic shifts in the global economy
Her “Wall Street” vantage point captures the nuances of what role the financial sector had in the decline of Western power
Her world view as someone neither from the West nor from any of the emerging countries produces an unbiased, non-Western analysis
Moyo daringly claims that the West can no longer afford to regard the up-and-comers simply as menacing gatecrashers and proposes radical solutions it needs to adopt in order to reassert itself as a global economic power.
