Book Overview

From the Prime Minister of Canada, a bold and urgent argument for the foundational change that is required if we are to build an economy and society based not on market values but on human values

Our world is full of fault lines--growing inequality in income and opportunity, systemic racism; health and economic crises from a global pandemic, mistrust of experts, the existential threat of climate change, deep threats to employment in a digital economy with robotics on the rise. These fundamental problems and others like them, argues Mark Carney, stem from a common crisis in values. Drawing on the turmoil of the past two decades, Carney shows how "market economies" have evolved into "market societies" where price determines the value of everything.

Focusing on four major crises--the Global Financial Crisis, the Global Health Crisis, Climate Change and the 4th Industrial Revolution--Carney proposes responses to each. His solutions are tangible action plans for leaders, companies and countries to transform the value of the market back into the value of humanity.
