Preview of a Post-U.S. World

Fareed Zakaria, writing in the International Edition of Newsweek, has a spooky perspective about a future world without superpowers. With the U.S. becoming more isolationist and less involved in the world, it could happen.

Zakaria's last paragraph, based on a Foreign Policy article by British historian Niall Ferguson, is particularly of note. Ferguson's future isn't pretty but it is interesting reading, take a look.
