The psychologist Steven Pinker has long believed we should be more optimistic ? and even current crises do not dissuade himReading and watching the media over the past year, you might be forgiven for thinking that we are facing the collapse of civilisation. We have a shrinking economy, a fuel crisis that may bring on energy rationing and forced blackouts, extreme weather events, the increased chance of nuclear war, and risk of the growth of a new pandemic riding on the back of the last. The Doomsday Clock ? a symbol created by scientists to represent the likelihood of a human-made catastrophe ? places us at just 100 seconds before midnight, the closest we?ve been to Armageddon in the project?s 75-year history.In the face of these threats, it may be hard to maintain a rose-tinted view of the future ? unless, that is, you are the Harvard psychologist Steven Pinker. In 2018, his book Enlightenment Now argued that our interpretations of news events make us far too gloomy. There has never been a better time to be alive, he said, thanks to the social, economic, political, technological, and medical advances of the past 300 years. Continue reading...

Whether she or Rishi Sunak becomes prime minister, challenge looks as daunting as it did for James Callaghan in 1976In Britain, the year 1976 was marked by three big events ? a summer heatwave, a change of prime minister and a sterling crisis.

Nothing in her pledges will foster the growth that this country so urgently needsLiz Truss has observed the dynamics of today?s Tory party ? and the media and thinktank ecosystem that supports it ? as a minister under three prime ministers. It is the Brexit right?s Taliban-like belief in the righteousness of its cause that drives the party. To win, she has resolved to be its uncompromising representative, but her decision has not stopped there. The only way for a Tory leader to sustain the leadership of what is ever more obviously a deranged and factionalised political movement is to govern from the hard right. It will end in failure.The epicentre will be the economy. Her uncontroversial stated aim is growth of 2.5%. Consensus stops there. All the mechanisms to achieve growth are drawn from the evidence-free but prejudice-rich rightwing playbook ? persistently anti-Europe, obsessed with tax cuts, buying into the faith that nameless regulations are shackling business and, above all, that a weak political class, deep state and obeisance to technocrats have combined to make Britain quasi-socialist ? despite 12 years of Tory rule. Truss is the insurgent carrying the Thatcherite flame who will put the world to rights. Continue reading...
