The bestselling author of CRISIS ECONOMICS argues that we are heading toward the worst economic catastrophe of our lifetimes, unless we can defend against ten terrifying threats.

Renowned economist Nouriel Roubini was nicknamed “Dr. Doom,” until his prediction of the 2008 housing crisis and Great Recession came true—when it was too late. Now he is back with a much scarier prediction, one that we ignore at our peril. There are no fewer than ten overlapping, interconnected threats that are so serious, he calls them Megathreats. From the worst debt crisis the world has ever seen, to governments pumping out too much money, to borders that are blocked to workers and to many shipments of goods, to the rise of a new superpower competition between China and the U.S., to climate change that strikes directly at our most populated cities, we are facing not one, not two, but ten causes of disaster. There is a slight chance we can avoid them, if we come to our senses—but we must act now.

In the 1970s, the U.S. faced stagflation: high rates of inflation combined with stagnant employment and growth. Today, we are heading toward a Great Stagflation that will make the 1970s look like a walk in the park.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Roubini cuts to the real problems like a hot knife through butter, with a clarity of mind that is rare among economists. I have never seen a more lucid and nuanced account of our financial condition. Not only will the reader be better off after reading this book, but the world will be a better place when central bankers absorb its message."—Nassim Nicholas Taleb, author of The Black Swan and Skin in the Game
“No economist is better able to curdle the reader's blood than Nouriel Roubini. What makes his views significant however is not that they are scary, but that they generally prove to be true. With this book, alas, he has surpassed even his high standards: the ten megathreats he details are as scary as they are plausible. Forewarned is forearmed. Read and pay attention."—Martin Wolf, Chief Economics Commentator, the Financial Times

“From the economics guru who predicted the 2008 crash, MegaThreats breaks down the most dangerous risks threatening global peace and prosperity in the coming decades. Nouriel offers a sobering analysis of the challenges we’ll face to avert the worst, as each crisis reinforces the others and hinders our ability to respond to all of them. The choice is clear: either we overcome deep-rooted political and geopolitical barriers to mount an adequate collective response (my preference!), or we sleepwalk into a new era of chaos and upheaval. A timely and compelling read, MegaThreats is a wake-up call for humanity.”—Ian Bremmer, President of Eurasia Group and author of The Power of Crisis

Pleasantly surprised. Not a fan of Roubini, but I enjoyed the historic tour. And I was surprised that I agreed with the conclusion.

Low expectations surpassed.

This is just another book that tells the obvious, the world is on the wrong path. It doesn't matter how bad things get, the author doesn't have the balls to even mention the possibility of the collapse of the monetary system. We can die in a thousand different ways but let's not talk about the end of the monetary system, that's a bit too much.

No mention to the possibility of the collapse of the monetary system.

I’ve often believed that when I pick up a book to read it, its important that it be something that challenges me and something that stands to teach me. Anyone can write a feel good book about positive futures but Nouriel has written one about very real problems that we as the human race will face if we continue to ignore exploring possible solutions. As I write this review the US economy is heading toward a prolonged bear market and in many finance groups I follow the narrative is usually “Where’s the bottom?” With very little discussion on how we got there or how to prevent it in the future.

I’ll be reading this one again, but with a notebook by my side.

Dare to read something challenging

While is can see what the Author is saying and even agree, this book drones on with end of the world predictions, it’s a little too dark for me.

Quite a dark prediction

The professor absolutely lives up to his moniker with this book. Very dark, but hard to argue with so many of the points he raises. Global warming driven mass migrations. currency realignments and worst of all, likelihood of global or civil wars Don't listen to this book if you are living on a high floor with a balcony.

if you haven't built your Armageddon bunker yet...

Must read. The perspective needed to connect the dots around inflection points and macroeconomics. Important

Roubini at His Best

I always appreciate Roubini's insight.....but this book felt like I was inside the Azovstal Steel Plant in Mariupol Ukraine. My ability to benefit and enjoy it was compromised by the sheer exhaustion of listening to it.

Great topics about the most important matters. The first chapters did not feel as smooth and after half of the book the serious matters kucked in. This book will affect my future investments as I believe Nouriel shared more hopen than only fusion tech.
