Peter Ho, former Head of the Singapore Civil Service, was the
Institute of Policy Studies' 2016/17 S R Nathan Fellow for the
Study of Singapore.This book collects the four IPS-Nathan Lectures
that he delivered between April and May 2017, and gathers
highlights of his dialogues with the audience.Ho surveys the
increasingly complex world, and suggests what governments can do to
prepare for the future - even as no one can predict it. He uses
metaphors such as the 'black elephant' and concepts like the
'dialectic of governance' to explain how a systematic approach to
thinking about the future can help countries in general - and
Singapore in particular - build resilience and develop a
comparative advantage in the face of uncertainty and rapid
change.The IPS-Nathan Lectures series was launched in 2014 as part
of the S R Nathan Fellowship for the Study of Singapore. Its
primary goal is to promote public understanding and discourse of
issues of critical national interest.
