Ian Goldin speaking at the TED conference in Oxford in 2009. A short but deeply interesting talk about globalisation and some of the systemic risks and systemic shocks that are likely to become more virulent.
Goldin talks about two achilles heels of globalisation - inequality and complexity. And he focuses on some of the huge leaps in technology that are about to be unleashed.
