An award-winning author and leading international economist delivers a critical analysis of modern capitalism, arguing that innovative, collaborative, mission-oriented thinking is essential to address the significant crises we face. Capitalism is in turmoil, with the wealthiest 1% owning 44% of global wealth, while climate change threatens life on Earth. This unsustainable situation demands urgent solutions to long-standing issues. The book examines pressing challenges such as global warming, pollution, health crises, and social dilemmas, emphasizing the need for bold, resourceful approaches akin to the moon landing. Mariana Mazzucato advocates for a fundamental restructuring of capitalism to make it inclusive and sustainable, driven by innovation that addresses real-world problems, from health pandemics to urban pollution. Achieving this requires transforming government tools and culture, establishing new corporate governance standards, and fostering collaboration among corporations, society, and government towards shared objectives. The author asserts that, just as we united to reach the moon, we can similarly come together to tackle our most pressing issues and enhance the lives of all individuals. The urgency for change has never been greater.
