The age of transition : trajectory of the world system 1945 - 2025

---

Is there a crisis of world capitalism, or has a truly global economy finally begun to pay off on the original promise of the greatest good for the greatest number? Has the leader of that global realm, the United States, reached the end of its hegemonic predominance, or is it in the robust middle age of its tenure, now bereft of serious antagonists? The Age of Transition shows how a clear theory of history can illluminate the recent past, pose fundamental questions about the present, and offer well-grounded predictions about the ultimate trajectory of capitalism in our time. Their outlook is at once compelling and gloomy, a prophecy of a coming age of turmoil and disorder. Like Fukuyama's The End of History, this book will provoke a lively debate; unlike Fukuyama, Hopkins and Wallerstein know that we may forget about history, but history will not forget about us.
