AOT: What's After Post-Colonialism?

I grew up on movie soundtracks.  They graced many a car rides and roadtrips.  All these year later, I still have many of them uploaded to my iTunes and when I put it on shuffle, sometimes they pop up.  This morning was no different - the Pocahontas soundtrack popped up between a myriad of other songs.  But it got me thinking - if we're in the post-colonial era, what's next?  What is the era after this going to be?  While it's true (and unfortunate) history tends to repeat itself and you can study it to understand where we are and where we're going, in terms of "eras", I'm not so sure they repeat themselves the same way.  Do they?

If so, what comes next?  I hope it's more environmental and animal protections, but there's always a (scary) chance it's the far other end of the coin.
