The number one economic, political and even social issue today – everywhere in the world – is jobs.  As the various parts of the global community come out in different degrees from the recent severe recession, the recovery in too many places is not accompanied by hoped for declines in unemployment and underemployment.

Why is that?  And why are so many “experts” confused about it?  Because, friends, it’s not just a recession; it’s also a TRANSFORMATION, one that is having a profound global impact on what jobs there will be in the future and who will fill them.

Edie Weiner and Arnold Brown will make a special featured presentation on this momentous issue at the World Future Society conference in Boston this summer (July 8 – 10).  They will illuminate the trends and developments that have created the current crisis.  And they will look ahead at what will happen over the coming years – and what could happen, depending on decisions that both governments and individuals make.
