The Fix: How Nations Survive and Thrive in a World in Decline

The Fix: How Nations Survive and Thrive in a World in Decline

We all know the bad news. Our economies are stagnant. Wages are flat and income inequality keeps rising. The Middle East is burning and extremism is spreading. Frightened voters are embracing populist outsiders and angry nationalists. And no wonder: we are living in an age of unprecedented, irreversible declineâ€”or so weâ€™re constantly being told.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Jonathan Teppermanâ€™sÂ The FixÂ presents a very different picture. It identifies ten pervasive and seemingly impossible challengesâ€”including immigration reform, economic stagnation, political gridlock, corruption, and Islamist extremismâ€”and shows that, contrary to the general consensus, each has a solution, and not merely a hypothetical one. By taking a close look at overlooked success storiesâ€”from countries as diverse as Canada, Botswana, and Indonesiaâ€”Tepperman discovers practical advice for problem-solvers of all stripes, making a data-driven case for optimism in a time of crushing pessimism.
