Mycket gott skick. Skyddsomslag finns i gott skick. Economic systems are not static. They are constantly shifting like the earth's tectonic plates, bumping into each other, sometimes producing volcanoes. Thurow identifies five economic conditions that make the future unpredictable and dangerous: 1) the end of communism, 2) a technological shift to an era dominated by manmade brainpower industries; 3) a new demography; 4) a global economy; 5) an era in which there is no dominant economic, political or military power. Each of these "tectonic plates" is the subject of a chapter. He shows how each contributes to uncertainty and risk for world capitalism, but also offers new possibilities.
