- Asians don't think of themselves as Asian, but as the new Silk Roads re-emerge and propel Asia to the center of the world economy, Asians are rediscovering their greatness and forging a new Asian identity for the 21st century. Parag Khanna was born in India grew up in the UAE, USA, and Germany, and in recent years has lived in London and Singapore. He is an adventure traveler, scholar, and bestselling author of six books including The Second World, Connectography, and The Future is Asian. Parag is the founder and managing partner of FutureMap, a strategic advisory firm. He has appeared in major television and print media around the world, and has spoken at TED Global 2009, TED 2016, TEDxGateway, and other TED events. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

"Global History is written in English Language, by Western Scholars, and often with Euro-centrist prisms, theories, and analogies to predict countries' behavior, almost in a default way to Asia. Asia is the most diverse, heterogeneous region on planet Earth. So rather than conquer my neighbor and subjugate them and make them like me, which is almost a European thumbnail history of Europe. In Asia it's different, it's live and let live." - Dr. Parag Khanna
RudeBoySes What about the Japanese Empire? Live and let live? What about the Mongols?
Lawrence Ausan That merely depends on what the strategy of a conqueror. The Arabs are also asian right? They conquered the middle east and forced people to believe jn their God. And what about the Babylonians, the Assyrians? Furthermore the Dutch conquered Indonesia, but didn’t force Indonesians to believe in their God. To say that it’s merely an European thing is shallow thinking.
@@arthurlecomte8950 meh catholic and christs in indonesia are the products from colonialism through force . Thats the same thing with your logic earlier with islam.
There is a concept that's becoming the foundation of the current colonisation 5.0 methods that is came from Asia. It's called Tributaries where kings of smaller countries paid some tribute to the Ruler of China or into the other big Empire such as one of the most famous empire in South East Asia, Singasari, Majapahit, as a mean of diplomatical subjugation. They are still free or independent to take care of their internal and external affairs as long as they recognise their overlord's superiority. And in return, the overlord will protect its tributaries from other big powers of the world.
@@arthurlecomte8950 20th century japan adores the west so much, they learn everything from the west including western imperialism, the end of WWII is the end of this blind adoration, no more western imperialism in japan.

Wow! Good to know that.
Hello friend i have Greek roots too
I love to be a part of one big Asian community. As a Filipino, I cant wish nothing more but the development and peaceful rise of our continent, we are peaceful trading nations for thousands of year until outsiders colonised most of us. China and India has been our powerful stewards long ago and wish that relationships will not be tainted by outside intervention. Let us show the world that we can take care our environment while embracing development.

Oh please ban the gun in US so that school kids will not worry about being shot to death at school. And let Scotland and North Ireland go independent please because they dont want the Brexit. So why should they have to be dragged down with England? Speaking of religion, Chinese have never tried to force religious beliefs onto others by invading other countries and killing the native people and destroying their own culture and forcing them to speak Western languages and believing in Catholic like what the white Imperialist had done with Africa and South America. And please tell Australia and Europe not to judge middle East refugees by their religious beliefs and rejecting muslims over Christians or Catholics. That's discrimination against different religions.

Very well organised speech and you did a great job to remind all us Asians who we really are. Stand up for our own futures and share our great cultures once again for a peaceful prosperous Asian century! Thanks!
Great talk from Parag Khanna! I love & respect him very much! What Parag is right! Asia is the future, Asia led by China, India, Japan, Indonesia, South Korea & other Asian powers is returning to global preeminence, that's a FACT! Backed by evidence through Asia's rising economic & demographic trends, America & the West, in general, must adapt or face becoming irrelevant in an Asian led world. Global political, economic, military & cultural power is shifting to Asia, it's inevitable & there is nothing America or the West can do about it to stop it. But the minds of the elites in the West like the politicians, the media, the analysts & the intellectuals continue to think they can still dominate & shape the world, well they are WRONG! In an Asian led world, the West must change & adapt to this new world or face being left behind & become irrelevant, while Asia continues to rise & advance! GO ASIA!
You mean Chinese led world, not Asian led world. Despicable China wants to swallow Asia, starting with weak poor small countries, by stealing islands that never belonged to them. The Chinese enters weak countries by bribing corrupt politicians and steal the economy. Instead of leading Asia to unite like EU and adopt 1 currency to make it powerful to be reckon with by the West, they don't, instead they want to steal the entire economy of Asia for themselves.
It's all on western technology and money.
I take immense pride in being INDIAN ASIAN🙌💞👑
i love you too. marry me?
That is silly. YmDid you gave any influence in your becoming an Indian?
India is not culturally, genetically or linguistically connected to asia. Be proud of india, not asia.
this is what the author in ted talk was saying. Again by differentiating ourselves u r missing the point. This is what westerners did to loot asia by divide and conquer.

Asia is too big and diverse to be considered as one entity like Europe. The people and culture of South Asia are vastly different from East Asia. In South Asia, India alone is more diverse than Europe. Then, you have Southeast Asians, West and Central Asians who are all different. The meaning of "Asian" is so broad, it's almost meaningless.
the subcontinent india alone is more diverse racially, culturally, linguistically than Europe never mind the rest of "asia"...The word "asia" makes no sense..its just a eurocentric term created by yte ppl to essentially lump the rest of the world minus Africa into one category with no consideration that a person from turkey, Iraq or nw India has absolutely very little in common to someone in Japan or Korea, china etc...
@@RunhdeepS.Sandhu The diversity is the strenght. You are misreading the point that was made. Despite the diversity, Asia dominated world trade at more than 50% from 1AD to 1700AD (considering India and China alone). So your diversity being a minus point doesn't go well with the statistics of about 2 millenia.

@@SampadMohanty7 The point isn't abt strength or weakness of diversity, but that Asia is an artificial construct, historically it was never one entity whether political, cultural, racial or linguistic one. So there's no basis for it be one entity in the future. If you look at the map, Europe is actually the same landmass as West, Central and South Asia. And European have more intertwined history with West Asia (Middle East) than West Asia with East Asia, for instance.
Ancient world economy before 1850 isn't based on real data, there was no data. Just a simplistic study based on estimated population size, more people = more GDP. But that's not relevant in modern industrialized age. Technology and productivity matters more than just population. Look up top most populated countries, most of them are underdeveloped poor countries.
You are right. We should call ourselves Asian.
I dream of a United Asia.

Thank you for reminding me 🌝
Asia is so large and diverse you can not call all of this continents inhabitants same
turks have almost nothing to do with koreans europe is less diverse so all can identify with that In asia there are many cultures, languages and writing systems that have developed independently
What europe has enabled to rule the world in the 18th and 19th century was that all the small kingdoms were connected, new innovations and ideas could easily spread throughout the whole continent
the subcontinent india alone is more diverse racially, culturally, linguistically than Europe never mind the rest of "asia"...The word "asia" makes no sense..its just a eurocentric term created by yte ppl to essentially lump the rest of the world minus Africa into one category with no consideration that a person from turkey, Iraq or nw India has absolutely very little in common to someone in Japan or Korea, china etc...
LONG LIVE ASIA!
im soo proud to be an asian.
India was close to 1/3 to 1/2 of world GDP before the British came in.
Ancient GDP study is based on population size, not real data.
India was counted as hundreds countries before the British came in.
@sakata gintoki But even today, India is still a more culturally and politically divided nation comparing other major nations such as US Russia Brazil and China.
And 'advising' all the maharajahs in the process.
It was only 1/5.
Asia My Asian!
you are a Khatri from Punjab that is why you have such a dna mix, an average indian wouldn't be this diverse.
Yes Khatris I think are most recent (maybe a thousand years) immigrants from central Asia.

Excellent speech! What a great perspective, a powerful community. By working together you
strenghten each other. As a European I think our continent should join you and together we
will build a thriving Eurasia, the most dynamic economy and society our planet has ever seen.
Together we will help Africa and Central/South America to develop as well. There is so much
growth potential, we will make this planet a better place.
Asian identity. Great ideology. Go and speed up Eurasia!
I am not Asian. I am Indian. That's it. I will let East Asians take the Asia title.
That is why Ancient China call themselves Middle Kingdom.
Central Empire, to be more accurately translated
Actually China is still called that way, literally.
Asia is just a geographical term and Asians had many meanings around the world. In Britain, Indians and fellow brown people were Asian. While in America, Chinese and East/South East Asians were known to be Asian. Better to use the term like East Asian, Indian Subcontinent & Middle Eastern as oppose to calling Indian, Chinese, Iranian or Indonesian as Asian.
This is one of the most prominent Indian - Origin propagandist for the BRI. As Indians, we shouldn't fall prey to this sinister Chinese propaganda
No hate 😂
So proud im being Vietnam Asian,
If it hadn't been for the name, I couldn't have guessed Indian, and I'm very used to Indians.
What would you have guessed? As in what country or race?
I would have guessed White tbh, Greek
Dear Mr. Khanna,
In the maps that you displayed I did not see the island of Sri Lanka at the southern tip of India.
Any reason why the existence of Sri Lanka was wiped off the map? MG
Shangri la
Must be a mistake , i think
I didn’t see Nepal, too.
Sri lanka is there. Look again. Even the cities Colombo and Kandy are shown in some maps
Sri lanka is IRRELEVANT
In North America they might think of East Asians and Southeast Asians as Asians, but in the United Kingdom, they think of South Asians as Asians.
No, not China, but what the UK calls south east Asia. We in Australia refer to Asians as Chinese, Indonesia, Japan etc. They are certainly not in the SE but in the north.
yeah i think in the uk they call east asians *(Chinese Japanese rtc) Orientals..
Proud to be Muslim, proud to be Asian-Indonesian.🌏
Be proud of being human don't be proud of religion

Go ASIA
Asian Century started when Commodore Perry sail to isolationist archipelago in Pacific

He has a very simplistic view.
I just have one single question. Will we still evaluate a country with its GDP after 10 years?
Probably not. The Russian think they're the best because they have the biggest country. The US thinks they're the best because they have the highest GDP. China thinks they're the best because they have the biggest influence over the world and its goods. None of them is the best, it's a matter of perspective and that might sound disappointing but it's true.
@@erikeriks How does China have the biggest influence on the world?
@@silvermeta2421 Their culture and inventions (guns, paper, tea, gunpowder, printing, banknote, compass, etc) and most of the products today are made in china so yeah they are also becoming the world's leader

Pakistan is not even in race
Haha loved the 1st bollywood clip from the 60s... nice Mr. Khanna

Really awesome ✌🏻✌🏻👌👌👌
I have listened to him on other channels, where he discussed his book ' The future is Asian'. for him,
asia will trade with each other and war will be absent since historically the region has lived peacefully. Let's hope so , but the US and other countries don't construct their foreign policy for Asia based only on history , but on human nature. And for them, humans are selfish, mistrustful of powerful countries, alliances between or among nations are temporary (and thus can be broken, so they could break the close relationship with russia and china anytime such as giving russia crimea and offering russia nato membership and promise not to expand nato before doing so,.. and thus it would be easier since russia would be suspicious of china rise. maybe they think china and russia might come apart (and russia moving closer to the US and others) without giving anything up (eg crimea). and that this might occur when russia observed china becoming stronger and testing advanced weapons (hypersonic)), and one cannot get 'unity' in such as diverse region as Asia (so they can always find alliances and break alliances)... If China, or indonesia or india become too strong, say china becomes too strong , they would form alliance with south korea, japan (even provide nation membership to these two countries) saudia arabi , isreael (giving them nato membership ) to deal with China's strength and if its continue to get stronger they might form closer alliance with additionals countries in the americas ( such as brazil, argentina, mexico etc by providing nato membership , free trade). and if india becomes strong, they might form closer alliance with pakistan, china, to keep it in check.
The US and other countries design foreign policy based on human nature, and for them when people are powerful they could abuse that power given human nature (arrogance, etc) , so even if jamaica has no history of invading other countries in its region, but becomes powerful it might do so , so they prepare for the worse. let hope khanna is right and the region lives peacefully but many experts would think it is naive of him to think so given human nature : prejudice, cynicism, self centeredness, jealousy), so thinking that the 21 century will be the asian century since they live in the same region (and all have something in common ) is akin to thinking this century will be the human century ( or earth century ) and everyone on earth will live peacefully because they are all humans (or all live on earth). It will take more than just living next to each other( or living on same planet ) for people to live peacefully and in unity. Let's hope that is the case however though some might argue that countries living in close proximity to (as opposed those living far part or thousands of miles away such as the US vs asia) are more likely to have conflict involving border,s areas (spartly island, south china sea). they are also more likely to be mistrustful of their neighbor intent (if they see neighboring countries or a neighboring country testing weapons, military parade outside countries could exploit this mistrust and form alliance )or jealous (see skyscrapers, wealth, high speed train. and might blame this on the other country not playing by rules or obtaining this advantage unfairly)
Other countries could exploit not only prejudice within countries but between or among countries, and side with countries or a country when it is their interest to do so, not necessarily because they are tolerant towards that country or care for it. It is akin to someone telling a person (or country) from group A ' you see person C (or country C) he/she doesn't like your group' when in fact they want person C (or country C ) not to like country A (or person A from Group A ) but use it just to divide and conquer. In other words, they would be mad if person C (from group C) likes person A from group A or country A. Humans could take advantage of division or create division even if they care about themselves and they could with whomever meets their interest for the moment. Then break and create new alliance , so today country A is their ally and in the future it is country C that becomes they ally and country A their enemies. In reality they really are not on anyone side, but form alliance by dividing and conquering. It is akin to country D , not liking country E, yet telling country E than country F doesn't like it when in fact it wants country F not to like Country E and would be mad if country F really likes country E.

Asia has caught up to Europe, but I'm not sure if they'll be able to develop past it. Parts of Asia are already experiencing Post-Growth stage of an economy (the stage where the population begins aging, birth rates fall, so naturally, economy stagnates), a thing that took the Europeans centuries to reach (which they are also experiencing now).
If Asian countries can innovate past the 2 major issues, Aging populations/Falling Birth rates and Climate Change, the next century will be Asian-dominated for sure, and Asia will become the next Europe, colonizing the World.
If not, the future of Asia doesn't seem so bright.
