She is on the board of directors for the Chevron Corporation and the 3M Company. She has also worked for the World Bank and Goldman Sachs.</p><hr class="hidden" /><p>Dambias Moyo is a high-profile economist who regularly features on business news channels, TedX lectures and even major television shows such as Real Time with Bill Maher. She has written a number of best-selling books in Economics and the Political Economy. Her most recent book, <em>Edge of Chaos: Why Democracy Is Failing to Deliver Economic Growth &ndash; and How to Fix It (2018) </em>spent some time in the New York Times bestseller list.</p><h4><strong>Edge of Chaos</strong></h4><p><img alt="" src="/media/ib/economics/images/textbook/blog/edge-of-chaos.jpg" style="float: right; width: 200px; height: 300px;" />One of the central themes of <em>Edge of Chaos </em>is how population growth, rising income inequality, commodity scarcity and technological development are undermining economic welfare and social cohesion in many countries in the world. Moyo believes a growing underclass of people in the world economy is stuck in low paid employment, poverty and have little political representation. She believes this underclass is a risk to economic, political and social stability in countries across the world.</p><p>Moyo believes the solution to these problems lies in developing a more long-term strategic approach to economic and political decision making where the private sector and government sector work in partnership to manage and fund long-term solutions to issues such as low labour productivity, static incomes and inequity.</p><hr class="hidden" /><p>Two interesting areas of focus in <em>Edge of Chaos</em> are, firstly, the need to reward a nation&rsquo;s politicians more highly and then make them more accountable for their decisions. The hope is that this will make them take a more long-term view in their decision making. Secondly, Moyo believes that moving more resources globally towards education would be the single most important policy to solving the problems facing the world&#39;s poor.</p></div><div class="pinkBg"><h4>Some points for discussion</h4><p><strong>a. Explain&nbsp;some of the causes of rising global inequality and inequity.</strong></p><section class="tib-hiddenbox"><p>Possible points to consider:</p><ul><li>Inequality is about the unequal distribution of income amongst the world&#39;s population and inequity is about unequal life opportunities for the world&#39;s people.</li><li>Unequal distribution of resources to produce goods and services.</li><li>Lack of access to necessity services such as health and education.</li><li>Unequal distribution of political and economic power.</li><li>High-income groups/individuals can maintain their situation because of their financial power.</li><li>Political and economic instability in the world&#39;s poorest countries.</li><li>Environmental constraints in the world&#39;s poorest countries.</li></ul></section><p><strong>b.
