Permacrisis

Resumen del libro

Do you feel like we're in a permacrisis? Chances are you feel some anxiety about the state of the world right now. Mohamed, Michael and Gordon certainly did. These three friends who between them have almost a century of expertise in international economics, business and global government began talking over zoom at the start of the pandemic. They wanted to discuss the challenges the world was facing: unanticipated shocks, poor policy responses, struggling coordination. But the more they talked, the more they realised there was nothing pre-ordained about the gloomy path we're on now. Informed by their different perspectives, they sough a common goal: achievable solutions to fix our fractured world. This book is the product of that thinking. An explanation of where we've gone wrong and a provocative, inspiring plan to do nothing less than change the world, this book sets out how we can proactively prevent crisis
