description: Ian Angell, dubbed ""the Angell of Doom"" by The (London) Times, lays out his manifesto for the New Barbarians who will lead the economic elite into a Brave New World over the next two decades. He rejects the long-held view of information technology as our benign liberator from mundane work. Instead, he regards it as the seed for a new society, in which the winners in the knowledge economy will construct their own ""smart regions"" founded on libertarian principles and enlightened self-interest.
