Beskrivning
Despite repeated predictions of the demise of America and the English-speaking nations as the world's predominant culture, James C. Bennett believes that this gap will widen in the coming decades. Coining the term anglosphere to describe a loose coalition based on a common language and heritage, Bennett believes that traits common to these countries—a particularly strong and independent civil society; openness and receptivity to the world, its people and ideas; and a dynamic economy—have uniquely positioned them to prosper in a time of dramatic technological and scientific change. In a wide-ranging exploration back to the Industrial Revolution and into the future, The Anglosphere Challenge gives voice to a growing movement on both sides of the Atlantic.

Recensioner i media

It is very unusual to come across a genuinely new idea or a really original book. But the central thesis of The Anglosphere Challenge—that a new world order based on cultural affinity is evolving in response to the information revolution—is the most original attempt yet to make sense of the post-cold war world. New and original ideas are often strange or unsettling. Yet when Mr. Bennett has finished making his case, it seems the most obvious common sense. In short, this may be the Next Big Idea.
