German reunification gives that nation a place to invest surplus cash and new labor resources, which will enable Germany to dominate the European Community. Japan's economy will by decade's end probably grow to be 77% of the U.S. economy. This readable discussion of the future argues that Germany is the principal beneficiary of the dissolution of the Soviet Union, that emulation of the United States has disappeared as a trait in enormously powerful Japan, but that neither Germans nor Japanese know how they will use their new status and power. The author seeks to raise questions rather than offer dogmatic answers. He is not confident that the United States will undertake the domestic reforms necessary for retaining a high level of international influence. Condition: Very good / Very good.
