Thomas PM Barnett Quotes

An economically confident America has - since becoming a world power at the start of the 20th century - tended toward global engagement. It is during times of economic stress (1930s, 1970s) that America has become more withdrawn Picture Quote #1
Homeland defense doesn’t generate any force requirements beyond having enough National Guard to save lives in natural disasters and to baby-sit nuclear power plants on Code Red days Picture Quote #1
China’s headlong rush to industrialize was pursued with the most Marxist of prejudices - bending nature to man’s will. That’s a desperately hard trick to pull off when one fifth of humanity, having previously subsisted on 7 percent of the world’s freshwater supply, decides that it wants to instantaneously increase its caloric intake Picture Quote #1
An Obama administration truly looking to break with the molds of the past would stop treating Africa as an obligation and start treating it as globalization’s next great opportunity, understanding that Chinese - along with Indians and Arab sovereign wealth funds - are natural partners in this process Picture Quote #1
Once Europe’s colonial empires were sent into deep decline, thanks to World War II, America became globalization’s primary replicating force, integrating Asia into its low-end production networks across the second half of the twentieth century - just like Europe had integrated the U.S. before Picture Quote #1
So long as the global economy continues to recover, that remains Obama’s No. 1 claim to successful leadership. Nothing else even comes close Picture Quote #1

If America is addicted to foreign money and foreign oil, then China is addicted to foreign supplies of just about every commodity known to man - save highly polluting coal Picture Quote #1
Some Western demographers have posited, due to the female shortage created by the one-child policy, that China will be forced to field a vast force - as in tens of millions strong - of wifeless men who’ll gladly wage wars around the planet to burn off all those unrequited hormones Picture Quote #1
You can’t drag people from understanding to action. A customer isnt actually at the last mile if you’re the one dragging her to the finish line Picture Quote #1
To ask a country with 750 million people living on less than a dollar a day to optimize their development for the environment as opposed to getting food in the mouths of these people and giving them a decent lifestyle, that’s just a little bit too much to ask Picture Quote #1
Barack Obama inherited a bankrupt economy, a bankrupt government, and a bankrupt foreign policy Picture Quote #1
Most Americans have little idea of how far our nation’s worldwide standing had fallen by the end of the Bush administration; no matter how bad you thought it had gotten, it was worse Picture Quote #1

Despite living in this post-9/11 age of transnational terrorism, the risk of death during air travel has plummeted to the point where we now measure it in the ‘per billions’ of passengers Picture Quote #1
Is there anything about cyberspace that particularly screams Air Force? Not really. If cyber warfare is going to be as all-encompassing as it’s made out to be by its vigorous proponents, then it will disseminate throughout the services even more than the drone phenomenon has Picture Quote #1
We need to remind ourselves that our ultimate goal is not to reduce greenhouse gases or global warming per se but to improve the quality of life and the environment. We all want to leave the planet in decent shape for our kids. Radically reducing greenhouse gas emissions is not necessarily the best way to achieve that Picture Quote #1
Wikistrat is my ninth start-up, so I’ve been through this process a few times. You have to go with what works. The power of example is compelling, so model the ideas that you want someone to understand Picture Quote #1
Run with what works: Sell to the people who believe in you and are willing to take the chances and make the experience happen Picture Quote #1
You can’t drag people from understanding to action. A customer isn’t actually at the last mile if you’re the one dragging her to the finish line Picture Quote #1
