About this ebook
With his trademark energy, intellect, and wit, Khanna reveals how a new “mega-diplomacy” consisting of coalitions among motivated technocrats, influential executives, super-philanthropists, cause-mopolitan activists, and everyday churchgoers can assemble the talent, pool the money, and deploy the resources to make the global economy fairer, rebuild failed states, combat terrorism, promote good governance, deliver food, water, health care, and education to those in need, and prevent environmental collapse. With examples taken from the smartest capital cities, most progressive boardrooms, and frontline NGOs, Khanna shows how mega-diplomacy is more than an ad hoc approach to running a world where no one is in charge—it is the playbook for creating a stable and self-correcting world for future generations.
How to Run the World is the cutting-edge manifesto for diplomacy in a borderless world.

Reviews for How to Run the World
5 ratings1 review
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5An awful style of writing. Most sentences sound like he's writing a newspaper headline or something he has styled to be quoted. The book goes on and on about what appears to the same message over and over with very little interesting or informative. I expected much after the excellent Second World, which taught me something about the world, and this was a major disappointment.
