Description

The advertising for Al Roberts new book SUPERSTATES says

"In this century, the world will conduct an extraordinary experiment in government. In 2050, forty percent of the planet's population will live in just four places: India, China, the European Union, and the United States. These are superstates – polities that are distinguished from normal countries by expansiveness, population, diversity, and complexity."

In this episode of STATECRAFT Al and I discuss his latest book. What are 'superstates'? How do the different from empires? Was the USSR a superstate? All this and more in our discussion. Enjoy - I did!

SUPERSTATES is published by Polity Press
