Recent developments in the world and the strong European commitment to a regulating globalisation argue in favour of a forward looking analysis. 'The World in 2025' first underlines the major future trends: geopolitical transformations in terms of population, economic development, international trade and poverty. Secondly, it identifies the likely tensions: natural resources (food, energy, water and minerals), migrations or urbanisation. Finally, it defines possible transitional pathways: towards a new production and consumption model, towards new rural-urban dynamics, towards a new gender and intergenerational balance.

'Rising Asia and socio-ecological transition' is the explicit sub-title that could be an inspiring source for the future strategy of the European Union.
