Dambisa Moyo
Why democracy is failing to increase economic growth and how to fix it
In her new book, Edge of Chaos, Dambisa Moyo sets out the new political and economic challenges facing the world, and the specific, radical solutions needed to resolve these issues and reignite global growth.
She offers a radical menu of ten ways to improve democracy, making it better able to address the range of headwinds that the global economy faces – including technology and the prospects of a jobless underclass, demographic shifts, gapping income inequality, an unsustainable debt burden, natural resource scarcity and declining productivity – and deliver greater economic growth and prosperity.
Dr. Dambisa Moyo is respected for her unique perspectives, her balance of contrarian thinking with measured judgment, and her ability to turn economic insight into investible ideas.
She is a Board member of Barclays Bank, Barrick Gold, and Chevron. She holds a PhD in Economics from Oxford, a Masters from Harvard, and is recognised for fresh and innovative ideas as the Author of three New York Times Bestselling Books. She writes for the Financial Times, WSJ, Barron’s and Harvard Business Review and was named on the Time 100 Most Influential People list.
