Financial shocks on Wall Street have spilled over into global economics and politics. Major economic problems are hitting not only the United States, but also Europe, China, India, Russia, and Japan. Generational tensions (Europe), rising unemployment (China), nationalism (India), stagnation (Japan), and frustrated ambitions (Russia) are accelerating the creation of a new international order. In this lecture, Professor Bracken explores these challenges and looks at what they mean for the America’s national security as well as the future of various facets of the U.S economy, including the housing market and the stock market.
