Like Ted, I recommend the book The Pentagon's New Map by Thomas Barnett. It's an engaging book - Barnett lays out his worldview, and does a good job of it. I can't say that I agree with everything in the book, but I can say that it challenges assumptions - regardless of where you fall on the ideological spectrum. Read the book, make up your own mind. One thing I didn't realize is that Barnett has a blog.
