Race Plan by Jeremy Browne

Race Plan by Jeremy Browne

The world order is changing, incrementally but remorselessly, as wealth and power move beyond the industrialised West to the emerging economies in Asia and Latin America. As a Foreign Office Minister, Jeremy Browne witnessed this global revolution at first hand. Having seen for himself the extraordinary scale and pace of economic development in China, India and elsewhere, Browne's message is stark: the race to secure a favourable position in the new world order would be hard enough in the best of times. Yet Britain must now begin that race in the worst of times, after the deepest recession in living memory, still weighed down by high levels of borrowing and debt. Despite this, Browne remains an optimist. Britain can succeed in the global race, he argues, but we need a race plan. This is it.

Spectator "[a] bracing book." The Times "A cri de Coeur for free-market liberalism." New Statesman "It is heartening - to see a politician be unashamedly ideological and to put forward big ideas, as Jeremy Browne MP does in Race Plan." Total Politics
