Thomas Barnett Biography

Thomas P.M. Barnett is a leading security geopolitical strategist and New York Times bestselling author, who has worked in U.S. national security circles since the end of the Cold War. His latest book, "America’s New Map: Restoring Our Global Leadership in an Era of Climate Change and Demographic Collapse" (September 2023), analyzes the current geopolitical landscape and decodes the complexities of today’s world. Today, Barnett’s mission is to help global leaders visualize how the converging forces of geopolitical realities, climate change, technology, and demographic shifts will affect every field and industry over the next century.

Barnett is known for his work at the Naval War College and at the Office of Force Transformation in the Department of Defense under the direction of the late Vice Admiral Arthur K. Cebrowski (U.S. Navy, Ret.), who is regarded as the father of “network-centric warfare.” After 9/11, Barnett joined Cebrowski’s Office of Force Transformation in the Office of the Secretary of Defense as his Assistant for Strategic Futures. In that role, he developed an influential brief on globalization and international security, which later transformed into the New York Times-bestselling book "The Pentagon’s New Map" (2004). Barnett extended his “New Map” series with the volumes "Blueprint for Action" (2005) and "Great Powers" (2009).

Barnett has delivered over 1,000 speeches globally and has been profiled on the front page of the Wall Street Journal. He is sought after within government circles as an expert on globalization and a forecaster of global conflict, and recognized within corporate circles as a management consultant and conference presenter. An award-winning professor, Barnett has authored more than 500 publications and has contributed to numerous outlets including Wired, the National Review, and the Washington Post. He was a contributing editor for Esquire magazine and wrote a weekly online column for World Politics Review. His recent articles can be found on his website, americasnewmap.com.
