Beschreibung
Drawing from multiple disciplines, including history, economics and network science, this book is a global post mortem for a plague year. Ferguson describes the pathologies that have done us much damage: from imperial hubris to bureaucratic sclerosis and online schism. COVID-19 was a test failed by countries who must learn lessons from history if they are to avoid the doom of irreversible decline. Why were so many Cassandras ignored for so long?
