The Age of Breakthrough

Neil Shearing – the chief economist at the leading independent macroeconomic research center Capital Economics, a recognized expert on global economic issues, graduated from the economics faculties of York and London universities.


Modern geopolitics is splitting the old world. But where will its new economic fractures arise? And how destructive will they be?
In his book "The Age of Breakthrough," Neil Shearing analyzes economic trends for the coming decades. He describes the emergence of geopolitical blocs in a world undergoing profound changes – blocs whose relative size and economic diversity will be crucial for the restructuring of the entire economy, from trade and investment to technology transfer and access to critically important natural resources.
