Unlock the future with this insightful exploration by Raphael Kaplinsky, a renowned development policy analyst. This brand new book, published by John Wiley & Sons in 2021, delves into the pressing challenges of our time, including economic downturns, rising inequality, and environmental crises that threaten the fabric of our society. With 264 pages of comprehensive analysis, Kaplinsky argues that while we face significant sustainability crises, the path forward is not devoid of hope. He examines how historical technological paradigms, like the current Mass Production framework, have faced crises and transitions through time. By understanding these patterns, we can actively engage in initiating a shift towards sustainable economies and social equity. This book provides a holistic agenda for various stakeholders aiming to forge a prosperous, equitable, and environmentally sustainable future. Perfect for policymakers, students, and anyone passionate about driving change, this essential read will empower you to embrace the evolution towards a sustainable world.

Description:
Long before the pandemic, economies across the world were in trouble, with growth slowing across the board. This downturn coincided with growing inequality and social exclusion. Rising political dissatisfaction with ruling elites fuelled the rise of populism. Add to this the alarming environmental emergency and few can deny we live in a time of multiple sustainability crises.
While this conclusion can lead to despair, in this broad-ranging book Raphael Kaplinsky, a leading development policy analyst, argues that the future is not necessarily bleak. Interrogating the causes and nature of the systemic crises we are living through, he shows how the challenges which we now face mirror previous historical epochs, in which dominant Âtechno-economic™ paradigms flourish, mature and run into crisis. In each case, decisive action is required to move to a more economically and socially sustainable world. In our time, we are witnessing the exhaustion of the Mass Production paradigm. How we herald and manage the transition to the next paradigm “ that of Information and Communications Technologies “ will determine our capacity to build a more prosperous, equitable and environmentally sustainable world. This book sets out an integrated agenda for action by multiple stakeholders to achieve this end.

Decent value for the money.
Size: 6FT*6FT, Color: Grey
Was easy to assemble. Instructions were clear. Tools were supplied. It really needs to be assembled wherever you're going to be putting it as it can come apart easily when moved. The cross bars simply fit into open ended plastic 90 degree female ends. Overall for the money and to just have some division in a room it's a good value.

Garbage
Size: 6FT*6FT, Color: Black
This product is absolute garbage! It literally took all day to put it together and if the air conditioning blows on it the wrong way than the whole thing top over and it falls apart.
It’s not made of quality material and is very flimsy. The only reason I’m not returning it is because it’s too difficult to put together and I don’t wanna spend that much time trying to take it apart. Do not buy this!

Cheap
Size: 6FT*6FT, Color: Black
They serve their purpose as long as you leve them in one place and not moving them around and they're kinda flimsy and some of the velcros are cut too short and can't stay closed

Beautiful, sturdy, lightweight.
Color: Natual, Pattern Name: Divider, Color: Natual, Pattern Name: Divider
This screen is beautiful, lightweight and well-made. There is no splintering of the wood like I read in some reviews. The white fabric is thick and sturdy and even. The brass hinges seem to be high quality and were mounted precisely. This screen came right out of the box completely assembled. It was boxed well and there was no shipping damage.
I will enjoy using this as a backdrop when I am on Zoom and as a room divider in my studio.
I paid $75 for this and I think that is a bargain! I am very happy with this purchase.
