Concern over the present state of the world - its tensions and disparities - fosters in many people the uneasy combination of two sensations: those of urgency and powerlessness. We feel that something must be done before it is too late, but we have little idea of what we as individuals, or as families, or as groups of friends, can possibly do to stem the tide. This book explores the choices we have. It considers the options for civil society, and for the individual within today's political culture. It offers a strong critique of the prevailing model of modernity in developed countries, a model which is being exported and imposed on the rest of the world. The solution lies in our own hands. We need to rethink the choices we make on a day-to-day basis, of the ways we use our time, of the family lives we live, of the sorts of goods and services we consume, of the quality of democracy we are able to exercise. The individual, the local, and the global are inextricably intertwined, in positive as in negative ways. Passivity and indifference at the individual level contribute greatly to collective dismay at the condition of the world. "Succinct and lucid ...Ginsborg is best known for his authoritative surveys of postwar Italy . ..In recent years Mr. Ginsborg has been a protagonist in the movement to strengthen Italian civil society and reconfigure the Italian left to meet the challenge of defeating Mr. Berlusconi." The New York Times, review of Berlusconi "Ginsborg is never judgemental, though he is devastatingly thorough and occasionally mischievously witty." Times Literary Supplement
