Doug North's "Institutions, Institutional Change and Economic Performance" will be essential to understanding where the field has gone recently.  It's much more concrete than Stiglitz' "Globalization", which, while interesting, carries a lot of opinionizing among the little bit of theory.  North is considered the premier authority on institutions in the academic world today.  I've also attached a reading list from one of the recent events in the field, and it's pretty comprehensive.\n\nThose should keep you busy for a while.  :)

It's here, whether we like it or not!!\n\nRead Friedman's The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century.\n\nIt's about outsourcing.\n\nWhat Friedman means by "flat" is "connected": the lowering of trade and political barriers and the exponential technical advances of the digital revolution have made it possible to do business, or almost anything else, instantaneously with billions of other people across the planet.\n\nGlobalization 3.0, as he calls it, is driven by individuals: desktop freelancers and innovative startups all over the world (but especially in India and China) who can compete--and win--not just for low-wage manufacturing and information labor but, increasingly, for the highest-end research and design work as well.\n\nVery interesting book...

The US tows the worlds economy, but soon it will stop based on the cost of energy/supply.  The solution is to change the economics of Renewable Energy by creating sellable spin-off benefits.

I think it would be more correct to say that our culture is heavily committed to the use of energy.  Currently energy is heavily generated by oil.  That relationship with oil will continue in the near future but not necessarily for the long term, other energy sources are very possible.  The involvement with energy will continue to evolve and increase, ultimately dispersing its availability to many more peoples with its unit cost decreasing.

Very soon.\n\nIt has one of the largest economies in the world.  It is ranked fomrwhere between 10th - 4th largest depending on how you measure it.\n\nIt has one of the largest film industires in the world.  This should give it major influence on world culture.\n\nIt also is a free and democratic nation, with respect for human rights and property rights.  This gives it a major edge in the international community when compared with China.\n\nI would say that within the next 20-30 years India will be seen as a major world power, within super power status.

Not drastically but then again remember Japan in the 1980's whent he R/E market bottomed out....\n\nThing is that densely populated metropolitan areas such as Hong Kong will typically hold value since housing is always at a premium i.e. demand exceeds supply.

There is good evidence to suggest that the global patterns are shifting abnormally, but there is also good evidence to suggest that the patterns are not shifting abnormally.\n\nAsk again in 20 years and we'll know for sure.  ;)
