An optimistic vision of the future after Covid-19 by a leading professor of globalisation at the University of Oxford. Covid-19 left us at a crossroads: should we go back to 'normal', or use the lessons learned during the pandemic to shape a new society? But what does life after a pandemic look like, and how do we build a better, more hopeful future? Ian Goldin, Professor of Development and Globalisation at the University of Oxford, provides an urgently needed roadmap that reveals how the pandemic could lead to a better world: from globalisation to the future of jobs, income inequality, and climate change. Rescue is a bold call for an optimistic future and one we all have the power to create.
