January 2023 'Global Risks Report' on the edge of a low-growth, low-cooperation era and eroding climate action: 11 January 2023: As 2023 begins, the world is facing a set of risks that feel both wholly new and eerily familiar. We have seen a return of 'older' risks – inflation, cost-of-living crises, trade wars, capital outflows from emerging markets, widespread social unrest, geopolitical confrontation and the spectre of nuclear warfare – which few of this generation’s business leaders and public policy-makers have experienced. These are being amplified by comparatively new developments in the global risks landscape, including unsustainable levels of debt, a new era of low growth, low global investment and de-globalization, a decline in human development after decades of progress, rapid and unconstrained development of dual-use (civilian and military) technologies, and the growing pressure of climate change impacts and ambitions in an ever-shrinking window for transition to a 1.5°C world.

Since Paleolithic Era - between 500,000 and 10,000 BC - economic history of the world, as the primary socio-economic unit was the band (small kin group). Communication between bands occurred for the purposes of trading ideas, stories, tools, foods, animal skins, mates, and other commodities. Economic resources were constrained by typical ecosystem factors, including density and replacement rates of edible flora and fauna, competition from other consumers (organisms) and climate. Throughout the Upper Paleolithic, humans both dispersed and adapted to a greater variety of environments, and also developed their technologies and behaviors to increase productivity in existing environments. The following eras and periods - Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze and Iron ages etc. - show proven gradual domestication of plants and animals and the formation of settled communities at various times and places. The Neolithic shows that exchange and trade became necessary, as 21st century's historians argue that the first object or physical thing specifically used as general equivalent in the exchange was probably cattle - Timeline of international trade
