Is it possible to make a real difference to the world when we are trapped in our roles as consumers? Should we be building a new system of government that allows individuals to be more active in shaping policy? These are ideas put forward by today’s guest, Jon Alexander, co-founder of the New Citizenship Project and co-author of ‘Citizens’. In this conversation we trace human history through three stories: the Subject Story, the Consumer Story, and the Citizen Story. It is only in this final role that Jon argues we can tackle some of the biggest problems facing the world today. We hear from Taiwan and the ‘g0v’ movement that changed the relationship between citizen and state, and why in the UK, with a General Election looming, it’s more important than ever to create a moment where the story can shift.
