The Economist has unveiled its cover forecast for 2025
On November 19, The Economist magazine presented a cover forecast for 2025, reflecting the changes in the modern world and its uncertainty. The publication reported about it in the social network X (former Twitter).
Every year in November, the magazine releases a guide to predictions for the coming year called "The World to Come".
"In a year that promises an extraordinary degree of change and uncertainty, 'The World to Come' will help you peek around the corner to see what might happen next," the publication said in a post on X.
The cover features a collage of pictures that make up a face. The eyes, mouth, and nose are placed in the usual places. The cover is in black, red, and white. In the center is a photo of the elected president of the United States Donald Trump. Also on the cover are Russian leader Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, European Commission head Ursula von der Leyen and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, whose term of office expired on May 20. At the bottom of the collage is an image of English writer Jane Austen.
In addition, the collage is complemented by images of a rocket, a graph of growth and fall, a fist, an hourglass, a factory, a radiation safety sign, a yuan sign, the planets Saturn and Earth, a city, a syringe with red liquid, an electric car with a dying battery and microchips.
Last year, the weekly also put Putin, Xi Jinping and Zelensky on the cover. However, Trump and von der Leyen were not there. Instead, the authors portrayed then current US President Joe Biden.
