Megamenazas

Bestselling economist Nouriel Roubini was nicknamed "Dr. Doom" for his ominous forecasts and warnings in 2006 about the coming financial crisis, until his predictions and the Great Recession came true in 2008, when it was too late. His predictions are back with a much scarier prognosis. Roubini identifies ten unprecedented risks and dangers looming over our planet, interconnected and overlapping, and so serious that they can be considered "megathreats". The worst debt crisis the world has ever seen, geopolitical tensions that will lead to a new Cold War between China and the United States, the expansion of the populist wave, the climate emergency, the normalization of global pandemics, the demographic collapse, economic deglobalization, the technological revolution and its impact on employment, the increase in inequalities or the worsening of inflation are some of its manifestations. Our generation will see the end of the era of economic growth, sustained prosperity, high productivity, stability and peace to which we have grown accustomed. We are heading towards a time of chronic instability, conflict and chaos.
