Join 10 prominent economists-including Nobel laureates-as they draw on economic theory and years of study to predict what's in store for humanity in the 22nd century.
In scenarios that range from the optimistic to the guardedly gloomy, 10 esteemed economics look to the world of the 22nd century, considering such topics as the transformation of work and wages, the continuing increase in inequality, the economic rise of China and India, the endlessly repeating cycle of crisis and (projected) recovery, the benefits of technology, the economic consequences of political extremism, and the long-range effects of climate change.
One stimulating theory comes from 2013 Nobelist Robert Shiller, who provides an innovative view of future risk management methods using information technology. Meanwhile, Martin Weitzman raises the intriguing but alarming possibility of using geoengineering techniques to mitigate the inevitable effects of climate change . . .
Based on economic theory and practice; the laws of human interactions; and years of experimentation and reflection, In 100 Years is pithy and engaging volume that proves economists may be better equipped to predict the future than science fiction writers.
