Spotlight on Asia’s three super powers
For the first time in history, Asia is home to three great powers simultaneously, all of which are beginning to consider the continent as a coherent whole. Power struggle
To mark this gradual change in the global power hierarchy, Penguin Books has come out with a commentary titled “Rivals: How the power struggle between China, India and Japan will shape our next decade”.
The new book by Bill Emmott deals with relevant posers such as the economic and social changes that China, India and Japan are destined to go through over the next decade and what their growing stature would mean for America, the global economy and the 21st Century world. These three emerging Asian superpowers, responsible for the most rapidly developing economies of the world, pose the biggest challenge to America’s global economic and military leadership.
The issues tackled in the narrative are not just the rise of China, but other large, economically powerful countries whose interests and ambitions range across the whole region. It is on these nations that the future of the world economy hinges.
World economy
Emmott believes that the shape of the new world economy and global politics would largely be determined by the competition between these three countries. The book also explores the legacies of history, the likely future trajectories of China, Japan and India, and the potential collisions and intersections between them that will have a bearing on the rest of our lives.
A former editor of The Economist and a respected international commentator, Emmott has written six books on Japan and is a member of the President’s Council of the University of Tokyo besides holding several other prominent positions. Emmott also has honorary degrees from Warwick and City universities and is an honorary fellow at Magdalen College in Oxford.
