Acting in the face of global disruption.

Summary "In this book, the winners of the Best Young Economist Award share their perceptions, understandings, analyses, and proposals for what the future of the world could or should be. They answer the fundamental questions that economists and key leaders are asking today. Are the inequalities that have been growing since the end of the last century still tolerable? Does the welfare state still have a future? Is globalization really the cause of all the ills? Is Europe still a relevant economic space? Is economics finally opening up to other disciplines? In this book, each author expresses his or her background, his or her vision of society, and the actions he or she proposes to take in order to deal with the disruptions the world is facing. Created in 2000 by the Cercle des économistes and the newspaper Le Monde, the Best Young Economist Prize is awarded each year to an economist under the age of 40, selected for the recognition of his or her expertise and active participation in the public and economic debate.
