 LOBBYING FOR CHANGE . Find Your Voice to Create a Better Society

Great questions and answers, by Alberto Alemanno: 

How do we make government work for us? How can we save us from ourselves?

We face a dramatic gap between the problem-solving ability of our political system and our needs as a society. While this gap explains much of our social disengagement and disillusionment with traditional politics, it opens up a promising space for new, unconventional forms of active citizenship and civic engagement, as well as individual and collective empowerment.

This is the space we want and can occupy, as citizens. And it is set to grow as people abandon mainstream politics. That’s the space I want to you show you in the second part of this book.
