Public Lecture: The Journey of Humanity - Oded Galor 10 June 2022 In The Journey of Humanity Oded Galor offers a revelatory explanation of how humanity became, only very recently, the unique species to have escaped a life of subsistence poverty, enjoying previously unthinkable wealth and longevity. He reveals why this process has been so unequal around the world, resulting in the great disparities between nations that exist today. He shows why so many of our efforts to improve lives have failed and how they might succeed. The full transcript is available here: https://globalprioritiesinstitute.org...
