These three agendas boil down to the problem of how to improve the ability of the economy and society to cope with various changes. Such an ability is always needed, but, when technological innovation and economic globalization are rapidly progressing, economies and societies that can respond to such changes have a considerable competitive edge.
I think the fact that the United States has recently recorded higher growth than Europe and Japan reflects a greater ability to cope with changes which can be characterized by flexibility and diversity.
