coprolite Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Saving the world with bullshit? "Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World The global context has changed dramatically: geostrategic fissures have re-emerged on multiple fronts with wide-ranging political, economic and social consequences. Realpolitik is no longer just a relic of the Cold War. Economic prosperity and social cohesion are not one and the same. The global commons cannot protect or heal itself. Politically, new and divisive narratives are transforming governance. Economically, policies are being formulated to preserve the benefits of global integration while limiting shared obligations such as sustainable development, inclusive growth and managing the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Socially, citizens yearn for responsive leadership; yet, a collective purpose remains elusive despite ever-expanding social networks. All the while, the social contract between states and their citizens continues to erode. The 48th World Economic Forum Annual Meeting therefore aims to rededicate leaders from all walks of life to developing a shared narrative to improve the state of the world. The programme, initiatives and projects of the meeting are focused on Creating a Shared Future in a Fractured World. By coming together at the start of the year, we can shape the future by joining this unparalleled global effort in co-design, co-creation and collaboration. The programme’s depth and breadth make it a true summit of summits." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Koop Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Rich buggers gather to rend garments, beat chests, wail, gnash teeth and generally sunder things about how bad the world is but none of them admit they're the fucking problem. Or part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Someone at Davos must have some serious dirt on Trump. I'd love it if they get so annoyed by him that they blurt it out on camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
