Like it or not, we live in a global era, in which what happens thousands of miles away can affect our lives. This time, it is a Coronavirus known as COVID-19, which originated in a Chinese city. Next time it could be another infectious disease from somewhere else.
This is the new normal of the 21st century. We are connected to this world in all sorts of ways. We need to better understand it, both its promises and its threats, to make informed choices.
Richard Haass is one of the most respected American diplomats of our globalized age; serving as senior Middle East adviser to the president and US envoy to both the Cyprus and Northern Ireland peace talks. Now he joins How To Academy live from New York to explore the promises and perils of our era.
In conversation with Matthew d’Ancona, Dr. Haass will draw on decades of experience at the forefront of US foreign policy. He offers a masterclass in global literacy, exploring how the world works with wisdom and clarity.
Praise for Richard Haass:

“An essential book—just what the world needs now to put things in perspective.” —Ray Dalio
