Robert D. Kaplan

Booknotes, Sunday, April 21, 1996

Robert D. Kaplan discusses The Ends of the Earth: From Togo to Turkmenistan, from Iran to Cambodia, a Journey to the Frontiers of Anarchy.

Mr. Kaplan talked about his book, "The Ends of the Earth: A Journey at the Dawn of the 21st Century," published by Random House. He warned against the widening gap between rich and poor in many areas of the world and predicted that anarchy will result, first in Eastern Europe and later in Africa and other places. He intended his book to be a combination of travelogue and geopolitical essay. (timspalding)… (more)
