2024 is set to be a seismic year. A win by Donald Trump in the US presidential election could upend the world economy. The crisis in Israel and Gaza could continue to escalate and cause turmoil in the Middle East. And the race to develop AI will accelerate as China and the US battle it out for technological supremacy.
Who better to make sense of these unsettling and fast-changing times than Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator at the Financial Times? Widely regarded as one of the world’s most influential writers on the global economy and a multi-award-winning financial journalist, Wolf has been chronicling and analysing geopolitical and economic upheaval for nearly 40 years. He has written five bestselling books. His latest, The Crisis of Democratic Capitalism, maps out the implications of globalisation, technological development and the impact of democratic decline on the global economy.
