from Part IV - After the Virus: Who Do We Want to Be?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 August 2021
This chapter argues that an empowering society that nurtures its individual citizens and protects our environment rests on seven mutually supporting pillars, based on the values, behaviours and policies that the book has advocated, drawn from history. These will be crucial in creating a society that works for all, as we build forward from the pandemic, giving us the robustness and resilience that we need to face an increasingly uncertain future.The seven pillars are:1. A Nurturing State: Respect and inclusive support for all2. Ethical Capitalism: Working with business to redefine our values3. Fair Contributions: Full participation by the prosperous 4. Open Public Discourse: Enabling all voices to have an equal hearing5. Measuring What We Value: Signalling the changes we need6. A Sustainable Future: Responsible stewardship of our planet’s resources7. Participatory Politics: Reviving democracy and civic engagement
