Why our democracies need urgent reform, before it's too late A
generation after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the world is once
again on the edge of chaos. Demonstrations have broken out from
Belgium to Brazil led by angry citizens demanding a greater say in
their political and economic future, better education, heathcare
and living standards. The bottom line of this outrage is the same;
people are demanding their governments do more to improve their
lives faster, something which policymakers are unable to deliver
under conditions of anaemic growth. Rising income inequality and a
stagnant economy are threats to both the developed and the
developing world, and leaders can no longer afford to ignore this
gathering storm. In Edge of Chaos, Dambisa Moyo 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. Dambisa enumerates the four headwinds of
demographics, inequality, commodity scarcity and technological
innovation that are driving social and economic unrest, and argues
for a fundamental retooling of democratic capitalism to address
current problems and deliver better outcomes in the future. In the
twenty-first century, a crisis in one country can quickly become
our own, and fragile economies produce a fragile international
community. Edge of Chaos is a warning for advanced and emerging
nations alike: we must reverse the dramatic erosion in growth, or
face the consequences of a fragmented and unstable global future.
