I really enjoyed
Rifkin's The
End of Work ,
even though he missed the outsourcing of high tech jobs, so I decided
to give The European Dream a read. While
I like the ideas Rifkin has for a more sane world, I wonder how likely
it is that I'll live long enough to see the positive outcomes he suggests.
Rifkin contends that the EU is likely to become the model for future
world models -- that the American Dream is gone for most of us. The
European Dream is more society oriented than the highly individualistic
and greed oriented American Dream. |
