The current deep economic crisis signifies a pivotal transition, encapsulated in the Chinese concept of crisis as both danger and opportunity. In this insightful work, renowned futurologist Adjiedj Bakas guides readers through the New Great Depression of the 21st century, illustrating the natural ebb and flow of the economy with its inherent dangers and opportunities. He anticipates a new kind of Boom following this period of Doom, distinct from any previous experience. This crisis marks the end of an era and the dawn of a new one, representing the fifth major economic crisis in 200 years, all occurring during significant transitions. Historically, the 1930s saw fortunes made amidst adversity, giving rise to new industries like art deco and mass communication.
