It’s comforting to think that humanity would come together to fend off a shared danger for the benefit of all, but if the COVID pandemic put this notion to the test, it seems it’s a test we collectively failed. But is there a so-called Goldilocks crisis that could better galvanize humanity’s ability to cooperate and bring us to a better world on the other side?

On this episode, we look for answers with Ian Bremmer, a political scientist, the president and founder of Eurasia Group and GZERO Media, and the author of New York Times bestseller The Power of Crisis: How Three Threats — and Our Response — Will Change the World. Here, we discuss why the pandemic didn’t have us uniting with purpose in ways that current and future crises might, what threats will most likely force us to cooperate, and what a truly collaborative 21st century might look like. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
