It is his hands-on experience, years of diplomatic baggage, and descent-an Indian hailing from Chinese-dominated Singapore-lifted Mahbubani to the status of a unique and independent thinker right from the very beginning of his intellectual adventure, marked by the volume “Can Asians Think?”, first issued in 1998. Mahbubani points to Europe which not only “has lost its common sense” through the processes of EU integration, but its global population potential has been shrinking (from 22% in 1950 to 7% in 2050, whereas Africa will grow from 9% to 39% in the same period) and it lacks a warrant of hard force Having left that office, Mahbubani became one of the most recognised intellectuals in the West and Asia, and a specialist in the modern international affairs. Little known in Poland but resounding in the west, albeit heavily controversial, especially in liberal circles, Kishore Mahbubani is a veteran of professional diplomacy, who was the Ambassador of Singapore to the UN. This author is a controversial one, but perhaps we should take a look at us in the mirror his works are The West must share its power with Asia or abandon its domination outright, says Kishore Mahbubani. ![]()
