Introduction Miracles and Nasty Surprises

A chapter in Coherence in the Midst of Complexity, 2011, pp 1-10 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Over the last twenty years, society, management, politics and organization have been beset by a myriad of miracles and nasty surprises. First was the crisis-proof new economy, then the enormous real estate boom, followed by financial crisis, and there is the ever on-going globalization. There have been enormous booms and abject busts. Bad things seem to have happened to good people, and seemingly bad people apparently have prospered. Some people who were thought to be good have been relabeled bad and some of those bad are struggling to escape prison.
