Ray Dalio, the founder of one the world’s largest investment firms, has been publishing chapters of his new book online about the changing world order. I can’t recommend it strongly enough if you are interested in the dominant macro trends governing global politics, particularly what history can tell us about the future of the US and China.

He explains in detailed comprehensible terms the history of the rise and fall of empires and the inter-related forces of education, technology, military power, reserve currencies and productivity. Each chapter has a plethora of key insights important to understanding our global financial system and the potential future of our American empire. Here is a link to each chapter:

Introduction

The Big Cycles Over the Last 500 Years
