Description

Fareed Zakaria presents ten surprising lessons for recovery in our age of asymmetry. Since the end of the Cold War, the world has been shaken to its core three times: September 11, 2001, the financial collapse of 2008 and COVID-19.

Each of these events was an asymmetrical threat, different from anything the world had experienced before. Zakaria highlights the importance of investing in healthcare and education, harnessing technology and how to react to America's retreat from leadership on the world stage.

Covid-19 has made the old categories obsolete and highlighted what should have always been the obvious challenge to populism - good government. The future belongs to the smart state, Zakaria argues, one that listens to experts and scientists to tackle climate change and recognises its place in a globalised world.
