The New Map: Energy, Climate and the Clash of Nations
Pulitzer Prize-winning author and global energy expert, Daniel Yergin offers a revelatory new account of how energy revolutions, climate battles, and geopolitics are mapping our future.
The world is being shaken by the collision of energy, climate change, and the clashing power of nations in a time of global crisis. Out of this tumult is emerging a new map of energy and geopolitics. The “shale revolution” in oil and gas has transformed the American economy, ending the “era of shortage” but introducing a turbulent new era. Almost overnight, the United States has become the world’s number one energy powerhouse. Yet concern about energy’s role in climate change is challenging the global economy and way of life, accelerating a second energy revolution in the search for a low-carbon future. All of this has been made starker and more urgent by the coronavirus pandemic and the economic dark age that it has wrought.
World politics is being upended, as a new cold war develops between the United States and China, and the rivalry grows more dangerous with Russia, which is pivoting east toward Beijing. Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping are converging both on energy and on challenging American leadership, as China projects its power and influence in all directions. The South China Sea, claimed by China and the world’s most critical trade route, could become the arena where the United States and China directly collide. The map of the Middle East, which was laid down after World War I, is being challenged by jihadists, revolutionary Iran, ethnic and religious clashes, and restive populations. But the region has also been shocked by the two recent oil price collapses–and by the very question of oil’s future in the rest of this century.
A master storyteller and global energy expert, Daniel Yergin takes the reader on an utterly riveting and timely journey across the world’s new map. He illuminates the great energy and geopolitical questions in an era of rising political turbulence and points to the profound challenges that lie ahead.

Future World Order
This is the 2020s edition of Dr Maha Hosain Aziz’s award-winning book, FUTURE WORLD ORDER, which public intellectuals like Dr Ian Bremmer (author of Us Vs Them and Founder of Eurasia Group) and Kishore Mahbubani (author of Has the West Lost It?) have called a “must-read”. Dr Nouriel Roubini (NYU Professor and CEO of Roubini Macro Associates) says Dr Aziz has “vision” and is a “global thinker to watch”, while Dr Parag Khanna (author of Future Is Asian) calls her “an engaged scholar activist”.
In her seven-time award-winning bestseller, NYU Professor & Author Dr Maha Hosain Aziz predicts the world will be defined by a unique global legitimacy crisis in the coming years. Norms in geopolitics, politics, economics and society will continue to be challenged, yet there will be no consensus. If it is not a US-led world anymore, who’s in charge of the international system? If democracy is weakening, is there a better system to replace it? If globalization is failing some, is populism the answer? If liberal values are in decline, will xenophobia dominate? Dr Aziz argues that tech has already worsened all aspects of this unique global legitimacy crisis. But she also offers hope that in the future tech can be creatively leveraged to be part of the cure.
FUTURE WORLD ORDER (2020) aims to serve as a guide for all audiences to make better sense of the world at this sensitive global turning point. And it encourages readers to be more activist in shaping their future. From 2019-2021, 15% of Professor Aziz’s book profits went to her late brother’s memorial fund, the Abid Aziz Fund, which supports charity Peace & Sport’s Syrian refugee youth project in Jordan’s Za’atari camp.
