DAMBISA MOYO will discuss the new political and economic challenges facing the world and the ten ways she proposes to improve democracy and reignite global growth as covered in her new book Edge of Chaos.
EDGE OF CHAOS sets out the new political and economic challenges facing the world, and the specific, radical solutions needed to resolve these issues and reignite global growth. It offers a radical menu offers ways to improve democracy: making it better able to address the range of headwinds that the global economy faces — including technology and the prospects of a jobless underclass, demographic shifts, gapping income inequality, an unsustainable debt burden, natural resource scarcity and declining productivity) and deliver more economic growth and prosperity.
EDGE OF CHAOS has already been noted in Kirkus Reviews, which reported that "the author's program of remedy is provocative and of much interest to advocates of growth. Moyo clearly identifies systemic problems that the democracies — or what's left of them — would do well to address."
