The world is in the midst of a profound shift in the balance of power away from North America and Europe and towards Asia. The author argues that the West needs to learn from the success of East Asian societies not only in industry but also in education and welfare. David Howell is a former Conservative MP and former Chairman of the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee.
