Constraining Consumption: Asia’s Role in Reshaping Capitalism
Monday, November 14th, 2011
Hub San Francisco, 925 Mission St @ 5th
7pm for networking, with the talk starting at 7.30pm
Appetizers and refreshments will be served
Books will be for sale at the event
Can the world survive the adoption of Western-style economic goals by the powerhouse societies of Asia? Chandran Nair thinks not, and offers startling success and a vision of a different model of social success for Earth’s most populous continent.
Mr. Nair offers an alternative paradigm for governments, business leaders, and academics to consider. He argues that economic policy needs to be realigned to avoid the catastrophic outcomes that could result from the relentless promotion of a consumption-led growth model in Asia, at a time when resource constraints are only too apparent. His book, Consumptionomics: Asia's Role in Reshaping Capitalism and Saving the Planet, calls for bans on some forms of consumption, re-pricing of resources, and for the state to play a bigger role.
Chandran Nair is the Founder and CEO of the Global Institute For Tomorrow (GIFT), an independent social venture think tank based in Asia. Its key goal is to guide corporations and their leaders on how to meet the challenges of doing business in Asia, with particular emphasis on the role of social investment, geopolitics, leadership development, business ethics, government and civil society. He is a staunch advocate of a more sustainable approach to development in Asia, and has helped governments and corporations instill these principles into their key decision-making processes through his work at GIFT, individual advisory services and speaking engagements throughout the world. Mr Nair is also Chairman and Co-Founder of Avantage Ventures, a boutique social investment advisory firm based in Hong Kong.
