i don't believe that any country regional or model will dominate in fact i think we are headed to a world in the first time in history will be interdependent, globalized, but without a political anchor. >> why do these terms take so long? you're talking about since the 17th and 18th century you were talking about the next term. >> i think that this will be the fastest because we live in the digital age and we are seeing how quickly china is growing, how quickly they are catching not get economically with a united states and consequently the degree to which globalization brings economic change to the midwest we've lost roughly half of our manufacturing jobs in the last ten years in part because economic activity is moving so quickly elsewhere. but in general, what happens is today's core over time becomes tomorrow's perfidy. periphery because tomorrow's cory and that is because we look as far back as we can go you see that great powers don't stay on top forever and that there innovation, they're know how gradually moves to other regions the less developed, and over time they are able to ca

-- became dominant? >> guest: i think the story starts with the end of feudalism, and to some extent europe's strength was its weakness. because when the feudal structure began to erode, suddenly you saw new towns, small towns emerge, and be they were populated by artisans, by blacksmiths, by the beginnings of what you might call professional people, bankers. and then over time those cities became the vanguard or of a commercial -- vanguard of a commercial revolution and economic activity, debt instruments, banks, little workshops that eventually became laboratories. they were able to thrive because they pushed back against the nobility, the monarchy and the church. and the rest of the world empires were much stronger, and they were able to maintain centralization. and, therefore, what you saw in europe, the fragmentation of traditional institutions, the birth of the bourgeois si that embraced the protestant reformation which slowly pushed the catholic church out of politics and led to a sort of secular

i think today the issues no longer whether we will dominate the world or whether the chinese will dominatethe world if we don't. i think the issue we we can all be consumed by mounting global turmoil, which will unleash the residual forces of hatred to historical animus that dominates so much of human relation and therefore be much more intelligent, much more prudent to return to our initial discussion which is so much more conscious of his promulgating successful values for some day we moved in a genuine global community that is based in the shared universal political culture with humanistic overtones. >> guest: >> host: another aspect of that is the question of dealing with rising radical islam, something again as national security advisor you were witness to in the early days of the islamic revolution in iran, dealing with the ouster of the shaw and of course we still confront radicalized and potentially nuclear iran today, one that could truly a sad the balance of power in the middle east. can you talk about that a little bit? i know you addressed it in your book about how that should

certain ports in the united states are dominated by the chinese. the chinese are buying up resources allover world. if you live beyond your means you wind up without any wealth and that is the situation the united states is in. the united states has joined the rest of the western world in the voting itself a life style it has not earned and we have eluded the future to bribe the present. you can do that for a little while but eventually it catches up to you and that is the situation where and today. these are extraordinary sums of money. when you are talking about the federal deficit in 2011 of $1.6 trillion, $1.58 trillion is the official number, that is a scale of overspending that is unprecedented. we make comparisons with greece but that is a small sum by comparison. and sharing it with the rest of the world, post american world is already being built before our eyes. the question is whether we are going to get serious about this colossal and i would argue profoundly immoral overspending before it is too late. >> host: mark steyn writes when so

the words market dominant products on page 3. i'm not sure what that means. if they are market competitive products, would that not be good enough. >> if i may, that is a term of art within the arcane postal world. the products are defined in different categories. and for example, products where the postal service is the only provider of first class mail is one category. products such as packages where they are competing with ups and fedex are another category. and so those are terms that actually mean something. and that's why they're being used. >> this maintains, then, the universality of the service in essence. >> right. >> is that -- in other words, is that what the term is intended to mean? i mean, what about -- you want service standards for other things besides market dominant? they don't have to do service standards for anything else other than that? >> i wonder if we want to call the expert witness. it's a fair question. maybe the deputy postmaster or somebody from his team would like to respond to that question do you want to come forward? would yo

in essence, america as the dominant power surrounded by allies which generally follow her lead. such are the realities of population, resources, technology and capital, that if america remains the dominant partner in a united west and militarily engaged in europe, then the west can continue to be the dominant power in the world as a whole. what is to be done? i believe that what is now required is a new and imaginative atlantic initiative. its purpose must be to redefine atlanticism in light of the challenges i have been describing. there are rare moments when history is open and its course changed by means such as these. we may be at just such a moment now. first, security. my discussion of the bosnia crisis demonstrated, the key lies in two reforms. opening nato membership to poland, hungary and the czech republic, and extending nato's role so that it is able to operate out of area. both reforms will require a change in nato's existing procedures. an attack on the territory of one member must, of course, continue to be regarded unambiguously as an attack on that of all. but th

products. >> dominic, mckenzie came out with that study. i guess it was in conjunction with the president's job council where you really looked over the decade and we were trying to sort out different scenarios in growth. one end of the continuum was 21 million new jobs. i think what is the hole that we are in now and how long will it take to climb out of it? how big of a deal would manufacturing be in contributing to this kind of job creation that has to occur, whether, you know, the factory jobs or this broader continuum of jobs that we're describing? >> again, we have scenarios on it but i think that it's very large and it comes back to what tom had said. that there are a lot of -- our sense is that a lot of -- we're very consumer-driven economy and how much we are going to have opportunities for jobs and consumption. it's its own virtuous cycle. taking aside the number of jobs that can be created from these advanced programs, health care is going to be one of the biggest industries in the world. you look at the demographics going on. th

the communist block would like to see the entire world under communist domination. >>> over the years, as the strength and determination of the free world has gradually convinced communist leaders that an aggressive war would be a wreckless and costly gamble, they have begun to talk more and more about the ability to win from us in the arena of ideas. this, of course, is fine with us. for we are a people with a traditionally great faith in our ideas. the ideas that have moved mountains and created wealth and shaped us as free men. and we are confident that history can do no other than award us the victory and any contest in which ideas are the weapon. >> but i would like to say this. confidence by itself without effort does not win contests. victory in this conflict depends on much, much more than confidence. it is a contest unlike any we have ever faced in our history as a nation. it is total competition with an antagonist who is putting into it everything within his capability. it is not a conflict between peoples. but between basic values and systems of government. between the prin

it's the jeffersonian who dominated scholarly attitudes. they were the party of the democrats and they were the party of the small farmers and so on. and the federalists were a bunch of aristocrats. now recently because of the development of anti-slave feeling, and women's movement, people like hamilton and many of the federalists are much more liberal on these issues than the southern dominated jeffersonian republicans. so they have recovered some of the press that they lost through the first half of the 20th century. >> the rural vote has come in. i found a letter that hamilton wrote. the council that adams sent to haiti, edwin stephens, who was a friend of hamilton's. and stephens wrote hamilton and said, do you have any thoughts about a constitution for haiti? it's very interesting what hamilton did. he said only a military government is possible. but he did try to have some balancing of powers in it. he said, you know, there should be judges elected for life and you should have a council of generals to propose taxes. >> right. >> so he

i am relatively confident that the democratic forces in russia will be dominant. it would make the west bigger, more resource full and interesting. >> also, tipping the balance of power? >> with asia, right. >> the title of the book is "strategic vision, close " what a critique -- terrific book it is. dr., come back with us on the other side. "this is america." >> "this is america," is made possible by the national education association, the nation's largest advocate for children and public education. the american federation of teachers, a union of professionals. the singapore tourism board, there is something for everyone. singapore airlines, a great way to fly. forging a higher global standard. the ctc foundation, a echo communications -- afo communications, and the rotondaro family trust. >> it is a big mess, as opposed to a big other. >> slavic, or fanatic? >> i am not very good with my languages. i welcome the help from you. the middle east is in turmoil. at one point, you say that the european union is irrelevant. and that america is in some kind of decline.

expert opinion that says the west is struggling to keep a brave face as it proceeds with its grab for dominance in the region also online for you right now. russian language it is silenced in the atlanta area as the majority of voters in the baltic states reject a proposal to give the official status to the language used by about a third of its population. u.s. presidential contender ron paul has warned that america is slipping into a fascist system with a broken government ruled by big business speaking to supporters in kansas city the republican candidate said individual liberties in the us were being stripped away author of shivani says ron paul is the only presidential candidate talking seriously about the erosion of america's civil liberties. right part is the only candidate on the republican side who was talking about this the loss of civil liberties civil libertarian really on that side and ending in legal rights making the connection between imperialism and the loss of rights at home so i think he was very much on to something and he's the only one you know in the republican presidentia

the world bank of course calling for reforms saying that china really should reduce its dominance of state companies and stop privatizing state enterprises encouraging private investment what are the chances of china actually taking this advice though in the short. well it's important to point out that the states generally a lot smaller in china than it is in the west so public spending is the share of g.d.p. is only around twenty or twenty five percent compared with forty or fifty percent in the west so really china is doing pretty well on that score betty but yes it should try and privatized this inefficient state industries but the problem is often politicians and officials don't actually want to let go and that happened in the west when we tried to privatizing the stories that we came nominally private but they were still heavily controlled by the government but has privatisation in the west necessarily been a successful policy. it hasn't it hasn't it depends on which industry so some of the formerly state owned lines it has been a success with but their industries like the railw

and dominic, i thought i'd start with you. because i think one of the most interesting piece of work coming out of mckinsey, daniel patchhog is here, michael park, other of your colleagues, is this focused on advanced industry. and the need for the united stat states to, as glen said, with a clear, laserlike focus, to engage on -- or to understand that there are certain sectors of the american economy. aerospace. automotive. defense. medical devices. i mean, we could run through the list. i think we probably would have the same kind of conclusions. that are absolutely fundamental for us to stay at the cutting edge of innovation, at the vanguard of global competition. but that requires us to rethink what we do and the sort of coproduction between business, university and the public sector. i thought it might be helpful just as sort of a platform setter for you to describe why the mckinsey interested in advanced industry and why we need perhaps even to reframe the conversation about manufacturing in this way. >> thanks, bruce. i

its own problems right now but the countries in the world that don't want the entire world to be dominated by one power the united states of america they recognize that the existence of iran as an independent government is something that is positive meaning that if the united states were were were to be successful in carrying out regime change in iran they would be emboldened to carry out further destabilizing efforts against other powers including russia and china by the way even though there are great powers. so i think that iran has allies and i think iran is trying to show that they can weather the storm and also that they can rally their population in spite of the fact the divisions that were revealed in two thousand and nine after the elections the presidential elections the iranian people as a whole don't believe they should be sanctioned the iranian people believe that they have as they do the right to develop nuclear power for peaceful civilian purposes and i think right now the iranian government is trying to weather the storm they're also making it clear that they don't options

it was impossible for a southern-dominated republic to recognize that regime. it took lincoln to do it. >> but john adams did send a consul. >> oh, adams -- yeah, but we didn't diplomatically recognize it. the federalists were very keen on having relations with the haitian government. again, the federalists have come up in the eyes of the scholars over the last 20 years, you know, through much of our history, through this 20th century, it's the jeffersonians who dominated scholarly attitudes. they were the party of the democrats, and they were the party of the small farmers and so on. and the federalists were a bunch of aristocrats. now, recently because of the development of anti-slave feeling and women's movement, people like hamilton and many of the federalists are much more liberal on these issues than the southern-dominated jeffersonian republicans. so the federalists have recovered some of the press that they lost through the first half of the 20th century. >> the rural vote has come in. i found a letter that hamilton wrote. the consul that adams sent to
