This year the people who run the world will change—and so could the ideas
they espouse
AMONG the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, Britain’s
David Cameron is the only leader who seems (more or less) certain of still
being in power at the end of the year. Barack Obama and Nicolas Sarkozy face
presidential elections which they may well lose. Dmitry Medvedev has
already ceded the Russian presidency back to Vladimir Putin, but recent
protests in Moscow and elsewhere will make the election interesting, even if
the result is not in doubt. Meanwhile in China Hu Jintao and Wen Jiabao are
due to prepare the handover in early 2013 of the presidency and prime
ministership to Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang. Beyond the big powers, shifts at
the top that could have wider repercussions are also on the cards in
Venezuela and Taiwan. All this change will come with a good deal of
ideological conflict too. See full article. | N*****m

Unbelievable. Both South Korea and India have their presidential elections i
n 2012, which are respectively Asia's fourth largest economy and the world's
most populous democracy. And the Economist omits the leadership contests (w
hich, by the way, are happening in the midst of a great political turmoil) i
n these two countries?
How am I supposed to take the Economist seriously when it makes such fundame
ntal slip-ups? Past reputation can get your magazine only so far - and peopl
e are going to notice these things sooner or later.
