From Superpower Dreams to Asian Realities: The Global Economic Shift

Max Bennett and Lisa Vega unpack the biggest shakeups in the global economy, where China is calling the shots, India’s on the rise, and Japan’s stuck in a nostalgic funk. Meanwhile, Russia’s economic engine sputters into the rankings like an uninvited guest nobody’s quite sure how to handle.
