The compass towards Asia

The opening: The fixed lesson in the history book indicates a transition from one state to another, otherwise where are the previous nations that prospered then perished? Life proceeds in this manner with its laws moving from one pattern to another and from one model to its opposite. And so that we do not go far in tracking historical transformations, we will recall the leadership of the British Crown and then its decline, and today the world observes the beginnings of decline in American influence amid the growth of competing global poles, most notably the Chinese dragon. Expansion and retreat do not occur in one domain without the other, as everyone knows, and therefore the condition of dominance is centered on the spread of the cultural system primarily, which requires, in order to spread, the dominance of the political and economic arms, because one alone is not sufficient to impose the international model. Economically, the consumer mentality in the world was not linked to specific products, as it was linked to Japanese products, and yet it did not form a leading international model. Likewise, in the military aspect, Russia’s presence internationally did not materialize despite its nuclear and military arsenal. This confirms that global civilizational leadership receives the three main arms: the spread of culture through the political and economic pillars. The above model clearly indicates the Asian compass, which includes China and the Gulf countries led by Saudi Arabia, through the objectives of Vision 2030 that surprised the world with the formulation of a new concept of human civilization, alongside a group of Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea. Therefore, this issue, through the Arab magazine, foresees this future context through the visions of a group of Arab minds. Hoping to contribute to shaping a serious and solid cultural and intellectual vision, noting in this regard that the Arab Publishing and Translation House has translated the book: "The Future is Asian" by the American philosopher of Indian descent, Parag Khanna, 2021, in the context of its interest in following new insights and developments.
