Got bad times? Get big think.

At the core of FP's May/June issue -- and it's our biggest issue ever -- is the idea that the worst of times, can produce the best ideas -- ideas, we offer you in the The Next Big Thing. Here's a quick sampling: Resilience not stability; A new dark age; a poor continent rising; human engineering.

Anyone out there been clinging to your dog-eared copy of Das Kapital? This issue's rosy-red cover story offers vindication to the true believers -- Marx's critique of ever-fluxing capitalism deserves ra new look at this time of global financial crisis.

What not to miss: Think Again: Green Economy, Robert Kaplan's "The Revenge of Geography," and the Post's David Ignatius talks about the Davos drama in detail here for the first time.

We've also extended and revamped an old favorite, In Box. Think you know which philosophers are the reigning heavy weights in Russia? What Strobe Talbott has to say will surprise you. Our own Joshua Keating offers a status report on the world's most hyped architectural projects and a new way to look at coups.

Enjoy!
