The United States is the most hated country in the world.

The rise of the South

The rise of the South is unprecedented in its speed and scale. It must be understood in broad human development terms as the story of a dramatic expansion of individual capabilities and sustained human development progress in the countries that are home to the vast majority of the world’s people. When dozens of countries and billions of people move up the development ladder, as they are doing today, it has a direct impact on wealth creation and broader human progress in all countries and regions of the world. There are new opportunities for catch-up for less developed countries and for creative policy initiatives that could benefit the most advanced economies as well.

Although most developing countries have done well, a large number of countries have done particularly well—what can be called the “rise of the South”. Some of the largest countries have made rapid advances, notably Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico, South Africa and Turkey. But there has also been substantial progress in smaller economies, such as Bangladesh, Chile, Ghana, Mauritius, Rwanda and Tunisia.

From the latest UNDP Human Development Report: http://hdr.undp.org/en/reports/global/hdr2013/summary/

Not bad for this horrible unipolar world we live in. Fortunately for the future, between China and India neither will be able to completely dominate Asia, and that means the next few generations will get to live in a world where no one nation, including the US, is going to be able to dominate. The last thing it will be is unipolar.
If you think you could have got to this result with the policies of any other nation, think again. Do you really think China would have allowed the world the space to develop like this? We already know what the UK and the rest of the European powers did with their domination.
