Riassunto

An international expert presents an analysis of why and how nations make business decisions while demonstrating how the U.S. can best act in its own interests, revealing how the examples of Saddam Hussein and Fidel Castro can inform us about North Korea's Kim Jong-il, the role America should take in strengthening China's economy, and the importance of acting in Saudi Arabia before it is broken apart. 40,000 first printing.

Recensione

'A new catchphrase is buzzing its way around the political salons of Washington and New York. Move over, "tipping point". The "J curve" is an explanation for the way the world works that is so simple that you can draw it on the back of a paper napkin.' Daily Telegraph
'The world has seemed a riskier place of late. Mr Bremmer's analyses of China, Russia and Iran, in particular...convincingly make the case that it is going to get riskier.' The Economist
'The J Curve provides both policymakers and business strategists with an innovative set of conceptual tools for understanding political risk in rapidly changing societies.' Francis Fukuyama, author of The End of History and The Last Man
'Ian Bremmer has come up with a smart, fresh way to think about how countries develop. His J-curve gets at the heart of a dynamic of change affecting large swathes of the world. A book well worth reading.' Fareed Zakaria, author of The Future of Freedom
