The Bill of Obligations: The Ten Habits of Good Citizens
Ten Years Hence aims to engage in some structured speculation about the future – specifically the decade just ahead and the world we’re likely to inhabit ten years from now. We’ll do that from a number of perspectives, but all of it will be focused on one question: Is Globalism Dead?
Meet the Speaker: Richard Haass
