Ian Bremmer's highly anticipated “State of the World” speech, which includes geopolitical forecasts for 2022 and beyond, focuses on why China and the US are not heading into a new Cold War. In the speech, which will air live on
http://www.gzeromedia.com on 6 December at 8 pm EST / 7 December at 10 am JST, Bremmer plans to discuss why America is at war with itself politically, and as a result, is turning its attentions further inward. Beijing is also focusing more on domestic issues, as traditional growth engines are running out of gas, while a profound demographic cliff is creating massive challenges, including a fast-shrinking workforce. Separately, Bremmer will address how the world's largest tech companies are challenging nations by establishing their own forms of sovereignty.
