A Future without Precedent

In today’s global economy, innovators, not politicians, wield the most influence. As a result – and as we see in protests everywhere – the world is in the hands of a younger generation, more technologically savvy than their parents and connected to one another through social networks that are not confined by territory, language, government, or the past.

JERUSALEM – In my nearly nine decades of life, I cannot recall a time in which the past was so irrelevant to policymaking. All of today’s significant developments went unpredicted by anyone. Experts studied the past, but, constrained by old paradigms, they could not discern the future.
