In the latest thought leader piece from the Global Futures Laboratory, “COVID-19: The Ultimate Stress Test for Our Global Futures,” 21 co-authors from across disciplines at Arizona State University explore how COVID-19 is shaking our societal foundations and revealing how vulnerable our systems are to shocks — even though we’ve long had evidence that something like this could happen.
