Book launch of Losing Control: The Emerging Threats to Western Prosperity as part of ESADE Globalisation Lab.
As the economic giants of Asia and elsewhere have awakened, Western leaders have increasingly struggled to maintain economic stability. In this book, Stephen D. King suggests that the decades ahead will see a major redistribution of wealth and power across the globe that will force consumers in the United States and Europe to stop living beyond their means. And as Western populations age and emerging economies develop further, the social and political consequences may be alarming to citizens who have grown accustomed to living in prosperity.
Stephen D. King is HSBC's Group Chief Economist and the bank's global head of economics and asset allocation research. He writes a weekly column for the London Independent and is a member of the European Central Bank Shadow Council and the Financial Times Economists' Forum.
