나라 걱정하는 칼럼니스트

 

그런 생각이 든 것은 뉴욕타임즈 칼럼니스트 Thomas Friedman 이 Michael Mandelbaum 과

함께 쓴 책 "That Used To Be Us: How America Fell Behind In the World It Invented

and How We Can Come Back" (2011) 처음 몇 페이지를 읽으면서 였다. 

The stakes couldn’t be higher. When so many big forces — technology,

globalization and climate change — are accelerating at once, small errors

in navigation can have huge consequences. We can get really far off track,

really fast.

-- Thomas Friedman 의 오늘(12/7/2016) 뉴욕타임즈 칼럼,

    "Say What, Al Gore, Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump?" 에서.

Friedman 의 새 책 "Thank You For Being Late: An Optimist's Guide to Thriving

in the Age of Accelerations" (2016)도, 언제 눈에 띄면, '세상 돌아가는 것'을 보다 잘

보기 위해서도 한번 읽어볼 만하겠다. "You do have a coherent narrative —

an honest, cohesive explanation for why the world is the way it is, without

miracle cures or scapegoats," 라고 뉴욕타임즈 서평은 쓰고 있다.
