The Great Escape

How will future generations cope with the threat of rising sea levels, droughts and other climate disasters? Will geographical borders still exist? How has the pandemic re-defined our future? Celebrated author and international relations specialist Parag Khanna explores these questions and more in his latest book, Move, where he posits that the next generation is going to be a nomadic one for several reasons, one of them being the threat of climate change.

The book, says Khanna, is a continuation from his 2016 bestseller, He says, “It’s just one stream of consciousness, which was about global connectivity, infrastructure, supply chain and to some degree mobility. But it’s also about connectivity as a philosophy—the fact that we are all connected to each other, and there is more mobility than ever before. It was a book about what is called functional geography, and how we use space.”
