This bestseller has received positive international press coverage and has been translated in several languages including German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish and Greek. [02:47] schestowitz In 2021, the global market for consulting services was valued at $700-900 billion and its rapid growth is set to continue. [02:47] schestowitz [02:47] schestowitz In The Big Con, Mazzucato and Collington show that there is an entrenched relationship between the consulting industry and the way business and government are managed today, which must change. They show that our economies' reliance on companies such as McKinsey, Boston Consulting Group, Bain & Company, PwC, Deloitte, KPMG and EY stunts innovation, obfuscates corporate and political accountability, and impedes our collective mission of h [02:47] schestowitz alting climate breakdown. [02:47] schestowitz Through analysing the consulting industry, The Big Con confronts critical questions of our time: Why has the market for consulting services continued to grow so quickly since the 1990s, with the emergence of Third Way politics? Do Governments exist by design to fix markets failures and to enable the private sector to become a creator of value while they would represent inertia? Should cost benefit and short-term plans be at the centr [02:47] schestowitz e of public policies? Or should the public interest and the capability to take risks be the driving force of all strategies? [02:47] schestowitz [02:47] schestowitz The Big Con is not about the public sector versus the private sector. Instead, it offers an opportunity to take a step back to rethink the current global economic situation.

[08:33] schestowitz[TR2][08:33] schestowitz[TR2]It's not radically different from the original MX Linux 23 release, which we looked at last August, and builds on the changes in version 23.2, at which we took a quick look in January. Unlike a few more neophiliac distros, its developers seem to take a pragmatic approach of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
