About Seven Revolutions  
Leadership is compressed. Greater connectivity across the world  means 
broader perspectives are more important than ever before, but  leaders—no matter 
what their sector—have far fewer opportunities to  think beyond their short 
term priorities and immediate  responsibilities. Instant information flows 
are bringing planning  horizons closer and closer to the present; pressures 
from multiple  stakeholders are eroding prospects for consensus. It is 
increasingly  difficult for leaders to act in the short term in ways that will 
yield  long-term results.  
SEVEN REVOLUTIONS is a project led by the Global Strategy Institute  at the 
Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) to  identify and 
analyze the key policy challenges that policymakers,  business figures, and 
other leaders will face out to the year 2025. It  is an effort to promote 
strategic thinking on the long-term trends  that too few leaders take the time to 
consider.  
In exploring the world of 2025, we have identified seven areas of  change 
we expect to be most “revolutionary”:  
    1.  Population
    2.  Resource management and environmental stewardship 
    3.  Technological innovation and diffusion 
    4.  The development and dissemination of information and  knowledge 
    5.  Economic integration 
    6.  The nature and mode of conflict 
    7.  The challenge of governance 

Each of these seven forces embodies both opportunity and risk  in the years 
ahead. Together, they will transform the way we live and  interact with one 
another. That is why we call them the “Seven  Revolutions.” 

The key points of this research have been captured in an  exciting, 
fast-paced, multimedia presentation that has been taken  around the world. Erik 
Peterson, the project’s founder and director,  has presented to every sector—
from governments to private corporations  to academia to nongovernmental 
organizations—and in every setting—from  local boardrooms to huge auditoriums 
overseas. SEVEN REVOLUTIONS is  constantly updated to reflect the latest data 
analysis and available  technologies. It is an effective tool for pushing 
audiences to think  outside of their areas of expertise and beyond their 
familiar planning  parameters. 

SEVEN REVOLUTIONS continues to be the focal point of a running  debate at 
CSIS and other organizations on the most important forces  shaping the world 
and the policy challenges they engender. It is a  challenge to leaders—a 
challenge to think seriously about events that  are over the horizon and a 
challenge to formulate and carry out  policies in the near term to effect 
longer-range benefits 



SLEEP was a marvelous invention,
but whoever first  thought of filling it 
with DREAMS was truly inspired. -- Ashleigh  Brilliant
