Democracy: A Transformative Agenda
You're invited to join us for a Prospect virtual event...
Monday, August 17, 1 p.m. Eastern
Since the New Deal in the 1930s, there have been two eras in our
political history: the liberal era, stretching up to the 1970s, followed
by the neoliberal era of privatization and austerity ever since.
In each period, the dominant ideology was so strong that it united even
partisan opponents. But the neoliberal era is collapsing, and the
central question of our time is what comes next.
As acclaimed legal scholar and policy expert Ganesh Sitaraman argues,
two political visions now contend for the future. One is nationalist
oligarchy, which rigs the system for the rich and powerful while using
nationalism to mobilize support. The other is the great democracy, which
fights corruption and extends both political and economic power to all
people.
At this decisive moment in history, Sitaraman's book, The Great
Democracy: How to Fix Our Politics, Unrig the Economy, and Unite America
, offers
a bold, transformative agenda for achieving real democracy.
Join Prospect co-founder Robert Kuttner for a one-hour conversation with
Sitaraman on Day One of the Democratic National Convention, as they
discuss the decline of the neoliberal era and the hopes for a
post-pandemic future that restores the Great Democracy that is the
United States.
