SEEING THE BRIGHT SIDE.

This article offers discussions with a collection of foreign observers from the World Economic Forum's "Young Global Leaders," who are optimistic about the United States abilities to succeed in global competition. The leaders were asked if they still thought the U.S. led the global economy, what the U.S. needs to do to maintain its position, and if the rise of the Asian economies will diminish the U.S. stature. An additional question asked if the rise of anti-Americanism in the world could influence the competitiveness of the United States.
