Sir Paul Collier, Professor of Economics & Public Policy at the Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford, is widely recognized among the world’s leading experts on African and resource-rich economies.
His latest book is The Future of Capitalism: Facing the New Anxieties (2018). He is also a member of Critical Resource’s Senior Advisory Panel.
Collier addresses the ramifications of the unfolding covid-19 crisis – an example of ‘radical uncertainty’, with multiple variables and unpredictable outcomes – on less developed economies, in particular in Africa.
