Global Trends 2030 Compared with the 2052 Global Forecast

In: World futures review: a journal of strategic foresight, Band 5, Heft 4, S. 360-366

Abstract

This paper compares the forecasts presented in two recent publications, Global Trends 2030 and 2052 - A Global Forecast for the Next Forty Years. The two differ because Randers believes in slower population and economic growth over the next several decades, significant disruption from increasing climate change, and an end to US supremacy.
