Society could end in TEN YEARS as political turmoil continues, predicts scientist

Intro:

THE world as we know it could end in just ten years as political turmoil reaches its peak, a scientist has warned.

Professor Peter Turchin says social unrest and political upset could result in the collapse of the world as we know it, based on his latest research.

Reflecting on Donald Trump’s recent election success, the scientist claims “the deep structural forces that brought us the current political crisis have not gone away.”

He warns the 2020s could bring society to an “instability peak” as issues over the rich-poor divide, political infighting and government dysfunction come to a head.
