Professor Chan Heng Chee is the Institute of Policy Studies' 7th S
R Nathan Fellow for the Study of Singapore. This book is an edited
collection of her three IPS-Nathan Lectures, delivered between June
and July 2020, and includes highlights of her question-and-answer
segments with our virtual audience.Professor Chan analyses the
uncertain and fast-changing world, and Singapore's place in it. She
examines the major fault lines today, wrought by the sudden
COVID-19 pandemic, the ongoing malfunctioning of democracies and
capitalist economies, and the unravelling of the world order. The
United States-China rivalry has continued to intensify, with ripple
effects on the world order, global trade and technology. Singapore
will need to navigate this evolving relationship skilfully, while
adapting its governance and economic models to respond to other
challenges. But is it all doom and gloom for Singapore? Could our
circumstances help us as we approach the new normal that lies ahead
of us? The IPS-Nathan Lecture series was launched in 2014 as part
of the S R Nathan Fellowship for the Study of Singapore. It seeks
to advance public understanding and discussion of issues of
critical national interest for Singapore.
