Krátky popis
Disasters are inherently hard to predict. But when catastrophe
strikes, we ought to be better prepared than the Romans were when
Vesuvius erupted or medieval Italians when the Black Death struck.
We have science on our side, after all. Yet the responses of many
developed countries to a new pathogen from China were badly
bungled. Why? While populist rulers certainly performed poorly in
the face of the pandemic, Niall Ferguson argues that more profound
pathologies were at work - pathologies already visible in our
responses to earlier disasters. Drawing from multiple disciplines,
including economics and network science, Doom: The Politics of
Catastrophe offers not just a history but a general theory of
disaster. As Ferguson shows, governments must learn to become less
bureaucratic if we are to avoid the impending doom of irreversible
decline.
