Produktbeschreibung

Change has run amok! Technological advancement measures its frequency in minutes. Much of what we think we know about the world is fading in front of our eyes. How we are, how we know, and how we live our daily livesall changing quicker than we can cope with. We find ourselves in a confusing, uncertain and volatile age.

Anwar Ibrahim, Malaysia's tenth Prime Minister, asks how we might rethink ourselves to adjust to accelerating change, and to shape more just and sustainable futures. His passion for truth and justice is rooted in his own experience: he spent, in total, over a decade behind bars through three separate miscarriages of justice, from his days as a student activist to his time as Leader of the Opposition.

Woven through the reflections on his time in prison are critical investigations into justice, post- colonialism, Islamophobia, democracy and world order. Anwar brings together the ideas of scholars and other thinkers from the East and West, North and South, to explore how we can create a new inclusive synthesisone that genuinely promotes good society and a just and sustainable world order. Vividly told, expertly dissected, this is a timely book for our turbulent age.
