Summary:
"In the face of unprecedented global change, New York Times bestselling author Alec Ross proposes a new social contract to restore the balance of power between government, citizens, and business in The
Raging
2020s. For 150 years, there has been a contract.
Companies
hold the power to shape
our
daily lives. The state holds the power to make them fall in line. And the people hold the power to choose their leaders. But now, this balance has shaken loose. As the market consolidates, the lines between big business and the halls of Congress have become razor-thin. Private
companies
have become as powerful as
countries
. As Walter Isaacson said about Alec Ross’s first book, The Industries of the
Future
, “The
future
is already hitting us, and Ross shows how it can be exciting rather than frightening.” Through interviews with the world’s most influential thinkers and stories of corporate activism and malfeasance, government failure and renewal, and innovative economic and political models, Ross proposes a new social contract -- one that resets the equilibrium between corporations, the governing, and the governed."--Publisher.
