Great nations today are revitalizing themselves; among them are China, India, Russia, and possibly the Islamic world. Their national aspirations suggest that the world will be shaped very differently in the future - in fact, many national borders will likely change beyond recognition.

At the same time, America has failed to achieve critical milestones that are key to its future survival: to prevent nuclear proliferation, to win the war on terror, and to resolve the world financial crisis.
