E-talk with Prof. Bobby Duffy ‘The Generation Myth’
Generational stereotypes are fuelling fake generational culture
wars that are distracting us from the real trends and threats. In particular,
inequality is becoming increasingly intergenerational, generational separation
is a more serious problem than a battle between the age groups, and our chronic
short-termism is preventing us from dealing with the biggest issues we face.
Embedding longer-term thinking that connects the generations is vital, as this
session will show, based on Professor Bobby Duffy’s new book.
