A rising star on why the political system fails to deliver things we all want-democracy, equality, solidarity, security and prosperity-and what can be done to create a just, equitable, prosperous and environmentally sane society. The dawn of the twenty-first century had the promise of a golden age. The economy was stable and growing, social peace seemed possible, and technology appeared benign.

The immense wealth of the United States should make poverty a historical curiosity. Why is income inequality growing and the scourge of poverty increasing? The vast majority of people around the world want to live in a society with democratic values. Why is democracy receding? Why is it so hard to get-and keep-the world we want?
