The Call of the East

A dramatic shift of the world’s center is in the making, says world renowned historian Peter Frankopan. Humanity has never experienced anything like it since Columbus. The author of the bestseller "The New Silk Roads" reviews the year 2019 - from a Far Eastern perspective.

While the West is obsessed with Trump, Brexit and the Yellow Vest movement, British historian Peter Frankopan is pointing to the East with an urgent warning: "We are living at a transformation that is epochal in its scale and character.”  In his new sequel  to the runaway bestseller, “The Silk Roads,” Frankopan charts a dramatic shift of the world’s center of economic and political gravity away from the Old Word towards the Rising Sun.
