The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making

This is a very interesting talk. Listen to the podcast or view short video clips on our Educators Corner website. David Rothkopf, CEO of Garten Rothkopf and author of Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They are Making, mulls over the research in his latest social macroeconomic book. He walks through a wealth of trends and statistics on the ever-broadening gap between rich and poor, and how true global influence is the product of a shockingly small handful of global players.
