The Twilight Before the Storm: From the Fractured 1930s to Today's Crisis Culture

Book • 2024
The book examines the fusion of the disruptive Information Age and deep Financialization, aggravated by generational change and climate, and how these factors are destabilizing various aspects of life.

It draws parallels with the disorientation of the 1930s and discusses the choices between different economic and political systems.

The author suggests policies that might lower tensions and defang extremes, questioning whether we can avoid a world on fire similar to the 1940s or transition to a more placid but constrained future.
