Democracy in Decline : Rebuilding its Future

The world is undergoing unprecedented change with the Internet, globalization, climate change, and the growing concentration of wealth and income which is marginalizing, disenfranchising and disempowering lower and middle income citizens. Democracy, the key political system for tackling these issues, is under threat however. Not enough citizens are politically informed and nearly half of the population doesn't vote out of apathy or cynicism. The voting system is flawed and governments are gridlocked. Lobbyists hold growing influence over politicians and election candidacy requires substantial funding. Power is ultimately retained by those who already have it. Philip Kotler confronts this gloomy outlook with some potential solutions and a positive message; that a brighter future awaits if we can come together and save democracy from its decline. Here is an opportunity for all of us to join the conversation, exercise our free speech and get on top of the issues that affect our lives.
