At a time when politics feels bleak and frustrating, I wrote a book on empathy and politics to inject much needed hope into the conversation and offer some ideas for change.

Out soon with @yalebooks.bsky.social @yalepress.bsky.social and available for preorder now 📚

Braw’s timely study charts the rise of globalisation from the optimism of the late 1980s to the current realism. A pacy & human story, it weaves economics and history into a compelling geopolitical narrative of the last three decades. @yalebooks.bsky.social
