Endangered Species

Foreign Policy ran an interesting section in its September/October issue called “Endangered Species”, here’s how they describe it:

 

HERE TODAY, GONE TOMORROW

What are the “endangered species” in our midst? When FP first arrived on the scene in 1970, few would have predicted that, 35 years later, the Soviet Union would have closed up shop, or that the person handling your customer service requests would be sitting in Bangalore. In our 35th anniversary issue, we asked 16 leading thinkers to look ahead to which ideas, values, or institutions that we take for granted may no longer be with us in 2040.

 

Very interesting, I believe.
