Møller goes a step further by sketching up a picture of how a future economic model and political system may look — forged by debt, scarcities, economic integration, and the rise of Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart I deals with global systems and possible long trends shaping the future over the coming decades, as the current political system and economic model, having run their course, come to an end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart II discusses how the era of scarcities will change economic behaviour in terms of economic models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart III looks into the global debt problem, which confines the world to low growth over one or two decades as the world tries to get rid of the debt burden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart IV forms an analysis of what has happened in the Euro-zone and how the global debt crisis has compelled the Europeans to take the next steps in integration and address the shortcomings and flaws in the original treaty from 1992.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart V turns to Asia and its future in the global economy. It concentrates on Asian integration and how the Asian countries will fare in the future under much changed circumstances compared to how things looked when the Asian adventure started some 30–40 years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the end, readers will find a short post-scriptum with some of Moeller's afterthoughts on the important issues discussed throughout the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Global System:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction to Part I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChina's  Effort to Redefine Corporate Governance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWelcome to the Age of Angst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWikileaks and Consequences for Modern Diplomacy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Deadly Cocktail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrivate Gain, Public Loss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking Profit at the Cost of Society's Interest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConventional Economic Theory — A Critique Highlighting Flaws in American Style Capitalism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eScarcities — New Economic Thinking:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction to Part II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey Events Driving the Future of Chinese Economy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSaving Resources with a Tax on Their Total Use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWant a Way Out of the Recession?
