À propos de cet audio
A bold and urgent argument by the Prime Minister of Canada and former bank governor on the radical, foundational change that is required if we are to build an economy and society based not on market values but on human values.
Our world is full of fault lines—growing inequality in income and opportunity; systemic racism; health and economic crises from a global pandemic; mistrust of experts; the existential threat of climate change; deep threats to employment in a digital economy with robotics on the rise. These fundamental problems and others like them, argues Mark Carney, stem from a common crisis in values. Drawing on the turmoil of the past decade, Mark Carney shows how “market economies” have evolved into “market societies” where price determines the value of everything.
When we think about what we, as individuals, value most highly, we might list fairness, health, the protection of our rights, economic security from poverty, the preservation of natural diversity, resources, and beauty. The tragedy is, these things that we hold dearest are too often the casualties of our twenty-first century world, where they ought to be our bedrock.
In this profoundly important new book, Mark Carney offers a vision of a more humane society and a practical manifesto for getting there. How we reform our infrastructure to make things better and fairer is at the heart of every chapter, with outlines of wholly new ideas that can restructure society and enshrine our human values at the core of all that we build for our children and grandchildren.
Production value was atrocious. Sounds like it was recorded in Carney's basement with a crappy old mic (due to Covid, it probably was). Whoever is responsible for sound engineering should hang their head(s) in shame.
Carney is a thought leader

There may be more information presented than was needed to make certain points or arguments, but he's an excellent speaker and seems well versed in his area of expertise.
I enjoyed most the sections where he talks more plainly about the climate disaster and presents concepts for solutions. I found it complimentary to the subjects and content found in Bill Gates "how to avoid a climate disaster."
I understood very little, but still enjoyed

I will say however once you get past the first chapter everything makes a lot more sense. The first chapter is effectively him reading a table of contents; Because of that it's extremely information dense and hard to follow.
Specifically I found the chapters on the 08 recession particularly interesting. I was too young at the time to really grasp what was happening or why. This book provided a lot of insight that I had not yet considered.
Can get very technical at times.
