THE FORCES THAT MOVE US
Dr. Parag Khanna
Founder & CEO of AlphaGeo, Strategic Advisor, Bestselling Author, Global Traveller, TED Speaker
Let’s get straight into it. If aliens arrived on Planet Earth, Parag Khanna would take them to London. At least, that’s what he’d do to show them the most comprehensive example of human civilisation.
“London is still the greatest city in the world in terms of completeness,” says Parag Khanna, a leading global strategy adviser, best-selling author, and map-lover. He appreciates its connectivity to the rest of the world; its global, cosmopolitan flair.
Parag’s latest book,?MOVE,?deals with the forces uprooting us and the unsettled map of humanity. It examines the factors that drive humans to relocate, and why we’ve been doing it for thousands of years. It’s also a book about the future of human civilisation, which is no small thing.

3 年Aliens are already among us; in the form of far-reaching far-out thinking like Dr. Parag Khanna - and lucky us! Our snow-globe world has been inverted. And all those swirling flakes are us, trying to settle back into place feeling terribly unsettled. But "place" is changing at such a sharp pace given the 5 precipitous conditions of CDPET he articulates. The race is on and it can be daunting. Perhaps the biggest reset - the biggest MOVE of all - will be our mindset, in grappling with this onset. Let's try to be patient with one another and remember that as the outer world is moving like crazy, the inner world remains a safe haven ... like the eye of a storm from where perspective and comfort reign free for all. ??
