MTV has gone where the CIA could never penetrate. Radical Islam has arisen to fill the vacuum of failed post-colonial nationalism in Africa and the Arab world. Allah has replaced Nasser. The West's humiliation of Russia by expanding NATO will come back to haunt the post-Cold War peace. In Asia, one billion people will live in 50 megacities with 20 million in population each. This will give rise to the Generic City because the past is to mall to inhabit. With less than 400 billionaires possessing as much wealth as 45 percent of he world population, the inequality gap is too vast to last. China's growing property will cast the shadow of scarcity on world food supplies.
