Economic growth in the 19th and 20th centuries was much faster than in the past and coincided with the global proliferation of democracy. Forecasters have predicted slower economic growth in this century, due to aging populations, innovation slowdowns, debt, climate change and other reasons. Matt Burgess will discuss how developed democracies can prepare for the fiscal and social stress of long-run economic slowdowns.
