An acclaimed economist’s fully revised and expanded guide to how resilient thinking helps us face a world of unknowns
The world is becoming more dangerous and complex. In The Resilient Society, Markus K. Brunnermeier offers a unifying framework for meeting its demands: resilience—not the avoidance of risk, but the capacity to recover from shocks and emerge stronger. Through this single powerful lens, he illuminates challenges as varied as geopolitical rivalries in a world riddled with choke points and interdependencies, the ever-present specter of armed conflict, food insecurity across emerging and developing economies, pandemics, and increasingly severe weather.
This fully revised edition of the award-winning The Resilient Society brings sharp new insight to the defining public-policy questions of our era—geoeconomics, global finance, sovereign debt, inflation, public health, climate change, and inequality. Written for business leaders, policymakers, economists, and engaged citizens alike, it shows how resilience can serve as a compass for the most urgent problems of our time.
