- Summary:
-
In a no nonsense fashion, the author abruptly calls time on the Asian Century mindset by placing Australia’s long term future front and centre. By declaring that Australia has begun the most important century of its existence, the author outlines why and how Australia can change to become a more powerful global player. He illustrates a future in which Australia grows stronger amidst mounting international instability, and shows how the rise of the global middle class will drive the nation’s socioeconomic evolution. Sparing few sacred cows, the author challenges the inevitability of Chinese and Indian economic domination, identifies the unassailable rise of the peripheridy nations and rewrites the manual on conceptualising Australia’s strengths and weaknesses. Casting a fresh eye over Australia’s urban and economic development history, the author also exposes the reality of its development model, one which more closely resembles an expanding archipelago. This book does what should have been done years ago, tells a story all about us.
