Destined for War

The End of the World Is Just the Beginning
Peter Zeihan
"The End of the World Is Just the Beginning" is a sobering and provocative geopolitical forecast by strategist Peter Zeihan. The book challenges the assumption that the peace and prosperity of the last 70 years were the result of natural progress. Zeihan argues they were an artificial anomaly created by the American Order (the Bretton Woods system), where the US Navy guaranteed safe global trade to bribe allies against the Soviets. Now, the US is withdrawing, and globalization is collapsing. Zeihan combines geography and demographics to predict a grim future. He highlights a catastrophic demographic collapse: most of the developed world (and China) is aging out of the workforce, meaning the era of cheap labor and mass consumption is over. As the Americans pull back and populations shrink, global supply chains will shatter. The world will fragment into regional silos where countries must secure their own food and energy or face collapse. Zeihan predicts a return to a harsher, pre-industrial reality for many, arguing that while the US will survive due to its geography and resources, nations dependent on global trade face an existential crisis.
