La ley como el mayor logro de la humanidad | Daniel John | TEDxKings College School

La charla presenta la ley como una de las creaciones más importantes de la humanidad: los mecanismos que permiten a millones de desconocidos cooperar cada día sin necesidad de confiar personalmente unos en otros. El orador analiza cómo funcionan estos mecanismos, qué cuesta mantenerlos y qué consecuencias puede tener la pérdida de confianza en ellos. Daniel John es alumno de year 11 en King's College School, en Wimbledon. La charla se presentó en un evento TEDx organizado de forma independiente por una comunidad local.

Daniel argues that the arrangements allowing millions of strangers to cooperate every day, without knowing or needing to trust one another personally, are among the most significant things human beings have built. He considers how those arrangements work, what they cost to maintain, and what follows when confidence in them is lost.

He is passionate about public speaking and enjoys debating, particularly around political and economic ideas.
