• Power and impending glory
  by Kishore Mahbubani
  
  The American dream is over. The Indian dream is arriving. Am I exaggerating? Of course, I am. America will remain far more prosperous than India for decades to come (although many now believe that the Indian Gross National Product (GNP) will surpass the American GNP before 2050). Yet dreams are not about past or present realities. They are about hopes and aspirations for the future. And a big shift in world history has occurred with so few taking note of its implications. Many young Americans no longer believe that they will experience the same improvement in living standards that their parents did. By contrast, many young Indians believe that they will do much better than their parents.
