Value(s) – Building a Better World for All

What do you value? Why is it that often the things we value the most – from frontline nurses to the natural environment to keeping children well fed and educated – seem of little importance to economic markets?
In Values), one of the great global thinkers of our time examines how economic value and social values became blurred, how we went from living in a market economy to a market society, and how to rethink and rebuild before it’s too late.
During his time as a G7 central banker and the seven years spent as Governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney witnessed the collapse of public trust in elites, globalisation and technology; the challenges of the Fourth Industrial Revolution; and the existential threat of the growing climate emergency. Drawing on a truly international perspective to our greatest problems, this book sets out a framework for the change needed for an economic and social renaissance in a post-Covid world. In short, Values) sets out how we can build a better world for all. It is a book that offers achievable solutions to global problems and a way to build a future fit for our children, grandchildren and generations to come. This is a plan for humanity restored.
