Solo Talk: The Economics of the New World Order
We're living in a period of dramatic transformation. The age of global neoliberalism is over. The economic order that has dominated the past fifty years is breaking down, and new ideologies are taking hold. These are ideologies of nationalism and borders, of tariff wars, economic sanctions, and trade blocs.
Drawing on his original research, leading economist Branko Milanović will explore the scale and impact of the transformation now underway. He will show how the rise of Asia has produced a new global middle class in the largest reshuffling of incomes since the Industrial Revolution. And he will explore why, when the world is becoming richer and more equal, humanity is becoming increasingly conflicted and unhappy. Here is your guide to the new economic era.
