Krátky popis
An urgent examination of the great wave of change breaking over
today’s world – from the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic and New York
Times bestselling author of The Death of Truth ‘A profoundly
inspiring and prophetic perspective on the contemporary world’ Ai
Weiwei In the twenty-first century, a wave of political, cultural
and technological change has capsized our old certainties and
assumptions, creating both opportunity and danger. As people lose
their faith in old institutions and elites, radical voices at the
margins and the grassroots are disrupting the status quo. This is
the time of the outsider – the protester, the populist, the hacker.
Some of these outsiders have sown chaos, like Donald Trump, and
others have provided inspirational leadership, like Volodymyr
Zelensky. But all have grasped this precarious moment to make
something new. Writing with a critic’s incisive understanding of
cultural trends, Michiko Kakutani outlines the consequences of
these new asymmetries of power, and looks back to similar hinge
moments in history, from the waning of the Middle Ages to the
aftermath of the Second World War, to find a way forward. For there
is, Kakutani argues, always the promise of transformation in times
of turmoil. We can surrender to the waters, give in to the
gathering chaos, or we can use the wave’s momentum to propel us
into a more stable and sustainable future.
