    The world is in flux. Disruptive technologies, ideas, and politicians are challenging business models, norms, and political conventions everywhere. How we, as leaders in business and politics, choose to respond matters greatly. Some voices refuse to concede the need for any change, while others advocate for radical realignment. But neither of these positions can sustainably address the legitimate concerns of disaffected citizens. Right Here, Right Now sets out a pragmatic, forward-looking vision for leaders in business and politics by analyzing how economic, social, and public policy trends--including globalized movements of capital, goods and services, and labour--have affected our economies, communities, and governments. Harper contends that Donald Trump's surprise election and governing agenda clearly signal that political, economic, and social institutions must be more responsive to legitimate concerns about public policy, market regulation, immigration, and technology. Urging readers to look past questions of style and gravitas, Harper thoughtfully examines the substantive underpinnings of how and why Donald Trump was able to succeed Barack Obama as President of the United States, and how these forces are manifesting themselves in other western democracies. Analyzing international trade, market regulation, immigration, technology, and the role of government in the digital economy, Harper lays out the case for pragmatic leadership as a proven solution to the uncertainty and risk that businesses and governments face today.

    Self congratulations book

    Harper na minha opinião foi o melhor PM do Canadá na era moderna. Ele fez muito pela economia e imigração de uma das mais poderosas nações do mundo, e foi derrotado exatamente por isso, por ser um conservador, um tradicionalista, e por colocar o cidadão canadense em primeiro lugar. Indico esse livro para quem quer entender mais sobre o sistema de imigração do Canadá, não como imigrar para o país, mas como é o melhor sistema implementado até hoje em quaisquer das nações mais poderosas do mundo. Mas esse livro não é para qualquer um, é bem específico para quem conhece o Canadá e as suas políticas internas, até porque como diz meu título da resenha é um livro de "self high-five", Harper sabe que ele fez muito pelo país e sabe que os liberais estão destruindo o que ele fez, e por isso ele se parabeniza, da tapinhas nas próprias costas, e lava as mãos quanto ao presente cenário político nacional e internacional.

    Stephen Joseph Harper

    Stephen Joseph Harper PC (born April 30, 1959) is a Canadian economist, entrepreneur, and retired politician who served as the 22nd Prime Minister of Canada, from February 6, 2006, to November 4, 2015. Harper was the first Canadian Prime Minister to come from the modern Conservative Party of Canada, which was formed by a merger of the Progressive Conservative Party and the Canadian Alliance. Harper was elected to the House of Commons of Canada for the riding of Calgary Southwest in Alberta from 2002 to 2015 and for Calgary Heritage until 2016. Earlier, from 1993 to 1997, he was the federal MP for Calgary West, representing the Reform Party of Canada. He was one of the founding members of the Reform Party, but did not seek re-election in the 1997 federal election. Harper instead joined and later led the National Citizens Coalition, a conservative lobbyist group. In 2002, he succeeded Stockwell Day as leader of the Canadian Alliance, the successor to the Reform Party and returned to parliament as Leader of the Opposition. In 2003, he reached an agreement with Progressive Conservative leader Peter MacKay for the merger of their two parties to form the Conservative Party of Canada. He was elected as the party's first leader, in March 2004.
