Description
Billy Bragg diagnoses the crisis of accountability in Western democracies in this new series of political pamphlets from Faber. We live in a world where strongman politics are rising, and corporations have undermined democracy.
Ordinary voters feel helpless to effect change, resulting in outbreaks of populist anger, and traditional platforms for debate are losing their viability as readers source information online. In this short and vital polemic, Bragg argues that accountability is the antidote to authoritarianism, and that without it, we can never truly be free.
He shows us that Freedom requires three dimensions to function: Liberty, Equality, and Accountability - and the result is a three dimensional space in which freedom can be exercised by all.
