The Third Wave is a book by writer and futurist Alvin Toffler, published in 1979. In it, Toffler analyzes the history of humanity and describes the configuration the world will take once the industrial age is over. The author proposes overcoming ideologies, models of government, economics, communications, and societies structured around centralized production, such as capitalist and communist industrialism. Despite being several decades old, the concept expressed is still quite current in many respects, and reading it allows us to understand that processes such as globalization are closer to human evolution or cultural evolution than to a conspiracy of the powerful.
Alvin Eugene Toffler was an American writer, futurist, and businessman known for his works discussing modern technologies, including the digital revolution and the communication revolution, with emphasis on their effects on cultures worldwide. He is regarded as one of the world's outstanding futurists.
