#Peace as an Economic Strategy

"Historically, wars have driven extraordinary innovation, generating everything from the radar to the internet. A peace mission would feature the same level of ambition, but directed toward conflict prevention rather than conflict readiness. It would mobilize investments in infrastructure and programs to address the root causes of instability: food insecurity, water scarcity, and climate displacement."

The #TorontoStar on Friday published a piece by #MarianaMazzucato and #SarahDoyle urging #Canada to adopt a #MissionEconomy approach to some key issues. I explored that idea in a post in April, just before the election. doncurren.blogspot.com/2025/04/on-t...

Most #Canadians are repelled by what they see happening in the #US. Monday’s election is the first step in a collective mission for our country: making sure it can’t happen here. doncurren.blogspot.com/2025/04/on-t... #Canada #MarkCarney #Trump #Never51stState #ElbowsUp #NotForSale #MissionEconomy

#Canada is facing a #crisis. But crises also create remarkable opportunities. Here's my new post, "On Turning a Made-in-USA Crisis into a Made-in-Canada Mission." doncurren.blogspot.com/2025/04/on-t... #MarkCarney #PierrePoilievre #US #51stState #Never51stState #MissionEconomy #MarianaMazzucato

@AnnikaJoeres Krass. Mariana Mazzucato beschreibt die Probleme und Kosten, die das Outsourcing an Beratungsfirmen erzeugt haben, in #MissionEconomy und wohl genauer in ihrem neuen Buch, The Big Con (mit Co-Autorin Rosie Collington, habe ich noch nicht gelesen). Viel zu unbekannt in D-Land. #Mission #Economy liest sich gut, bitte bekannter machen

Hi everyone. The 6th #BetaCodexBookClub session just ended. We discussed Mariana Mazzucato's fine book #MissionEconomy. We had very diverse points of view and a lot of topics related to Beta, too. We were 7 participants in total.

We used the last minutes of our 2-hour session to set a date for the next #BetaCodexBookClub session, which will happen on 21 March at 19.00hs CET (German time). And we also picked a new book for the occasion!

This is the book we are going to discuss: #MissionEconomy by Mariana Mazzucato.

I finished Mariana Mazzucato's Mission Economy: A Moonshot Guide to Changing Capitalism. It took me three weeks to read because it's so good and worthy of in-depth attention. Mazzucato writes with such clarity. You don't need to be an economist or political to get it.

Glad to see Mariana Mazzucato's fingerprints on this. #missioneconomy Let's hope she's also influenced about the role of consultants too. #thebigcon
