A BRIEF HISTORY OF NOW - DIEGO OLSTEIN KARTONIE...

Exploring the rise and fall of global power from the mid-nineteenth century  this book tracks
the long and interrelated trajectories of the most serious challenges facing the world today.
Although at first the urgency of the coronavirus outbreak in 2020 seemed to take precedence
over other global problems such as socioeconomic inequality and climate change  it has
ultimately exacerbated these issues and created opportunities to address them boldly and
innovatively. A Brief History of Now provides a bird's-eye view of world hegemony  economic
globalization and political regimes as they have evolved and developed over the last two
hundred years  providing context and insights into the forces which have shaped the Western
world. Presented in an accessible and engaging narrative  the book addresses key contemporary
challenges and explores the repercussions of a technological revolution  the potential
instability of democracy over the coming years  and the urgent struggle to tackle climate
change. With his book  Diego Olstein helps to answer pressing questions about our world today
and provides a roadmap for analysing future trajectories.
