THE POWER OF CRISIS - IAN BREMMER GEBUNDEN

Renowned political scientist Ian Bremmer draws lessons from global challenges of the past 100
years—including the pandemic—to show how we can respond to three great crises unfolding over
the next decade. In this revelatory  unnerving  and ultimately hopeful book  Bremmer details
how domestic and international conflicts leave us unprepared for a trio of looming
crises—global health emergencies  transformative climate change  and the AI revolution. Today 
Americans cannot reach consensus on any significant political issue  and US and Chinese leaders
behave as if they’re locked in a new Cold War. We are squandering opportunities to meet the
challenges that will soon confront us all. In coming years  humanity will face viruses deadlier
and more infectious than Covid. Intensifying climate change will put tens of millions of
refugees in flight and require us to reimagine how we live our daily lives. Most dangerous of
all  new technologies will reshape the geopolitical order  disrupting our livelihoods and
destabilizing our societies faster than we can grasp and address their implications. The good
news? Some farsighted political leaders  business decision-makers  and individual citizens are
already collaborating to tackle all these crises. The question that should keep us awake is
whether they will work well and quickly enough to limit the fallout—and  most importantly 
whether we can use these crises to innovate our way toward a better world. Drawing on
strategies both time-honored and cutting-edge  from the Marshall Plan to the Green New Deal 
The Power of Crisis provides a roadmap for surviving—even thriving in—the 21st century. Bremmer
shows governments  corporations  and every concerned citizen how we can use these coming crises
to create the worldwide prosperity and opportunity that 20th-century globalism promised but
failed to deliver.
