Imagine a three-legged stool where one leg has grown too long while another has nearly collapsed. This is the precarious situation we find ourselves in today, where markets have expanded globally, states struggle to keep pace, and communities - the essential foundation of human flourishing - have weakened dangerously. Raghuram Rajan's "The Third Pillar" arrives at a critical moment when populist movements sweep across democracies and technological disruption transforms economies. Drawing on his unique experience spanning academia, central banking, and international finance (the same foresight that allowed him to predict the 2008 financial crisis), Rajan offers a compelling framework for understanding our societal challenges that has garnered praise across the political spectrum. His analysis reveals how the delicate balance between markets, states, and communities has been disrupted - and how we might restore it.
