Peter Zeihan looks beyond the collapse of the current world order to explore what comes next — which industries, regions, and business models will thrive in the post-globalization era.
Personal insights by JK, COO
The end of globalization isn't the end of prosperity — it's a reshuffling. The winners will be those who adapt their business models to regional rather than global supply chains.
While most geopolitical content focuses on what's breaking, Zeihan here focuses on what's emerging. This optimistic-but-realistic view is essential for strategic planning. His analysis of which industries will boom in a deglobalized world — agriculture, energy, defense, nearshore manufacturing — directly informs where I see growth opportunities for the next decade.
Agriculture becomes a strategic asset — food-exporting nations gain enormous geopolitical leverage
Energy transition accelerates out of necessity, not just policy — energy independence becomes national security
The 'friend-shoring' trend creates new trade blocs — businesses must choose which bloc to serve
Labor scarcity drives automation adoption faster than any government policy could
Optimistic realists who want to position their businesses for the next era, not just survive the transition. Strategic planners, investors, and operators with a long-term horizon.
