CitiGroup have released a new report that suggests the current geopolitical world order is coming to an end, and that America will soon cease to exist as the world’s superpower.
The report is centered around the idea that “Pax Americana” (a state of relative international peace regarded as overseen by the US) is in its final death throes.
“Pax Americana” is the term often used to define the (previously) current geopolitical order. That the general peace and stability of the Post-WWII world is due to America’s dominant economic and political power, backed up by its huge military.
Citi says that the Pax Americana era is over, and that the future holds nothing but uncertainty, chaos, and instability.
The report says:
2016 has begun, as 2015 ended, amid a significant worsening of the global political climate and along with that, considerable volatility in financial markets. Investors and businesses are increasingly aware of the need to understand the drivers and the implications of a greater level of event risk exacerbated by shifting social patterns.
It continues:
What’s more, we see little sign of this trend of political risk cutting across advanced and emerging economies reversing. We think it’s unlikely that the moderate global growth that Citi’s economists forecast as their central scenario will dampen these risks. If anything, the data we have analyzed for this report, combined with our combined expertise in comparative political science and international relations and security and defense analysis, underscores how, by many measures, these risks are on the rise and indeed could endanger even the already modest prospects for global growth.
In other words, the global economy is about to crash.
