Synopsis of Doom: The Politics of Catastrophe
En 'Doom: La política de la catástrofe', Niall Ferguson analiza por qué, a pesar de contar con la ciencia, la respuesta de muchos países desarrollados a la pandemia de COVID-19 fue tan deficiente. Ferguson argumenta que los problemas expuestos por la pandemia son más profundos que la simple falta de liderazgo, señalando fallos en el estado administrativo y la miopía de las élites económicas. El autor examina por qué se ignoró a tantos 'Cassandras' y por qué solo algunos países aprendieron de las experiencias del SARS y el MERS. A través de la historia, la economía y la ciencia de redes, Ferguson ofrece una autopsia global de un año marcado por la plaga, identificando patologías como la arrogancia imperial, la esclerosis burocrática y el cisma en línea. Este libro es una llamada a aprender de la historia para evitar el declive irreversible.
