Global Trends: The Jobs Wars

Abstract

The next global battle will be fought over jobs. The planet's population today is just below 6 billion—moving to 8 billion by early in the next century. If each year we add another 95 million people to the earth's total, then each year we need to create an additional 40 million jobs globally. A most unlikely—and dangerous—scenario.
