{"product_id":"9781526180766","title":"Act Now : A Vision for a Better Future and a New Social Contract","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn inspiring manifesto offering a radical vision for our political future.   We live in an age of crisis and decline. The right presents `solutions' that only worsen the situation, driving a downward cycle in which desperation leads to despair. But the left is also to blame: progressive politicians have consistently failed to recognise both the urgency of people's need and their receptiveness to new solutions.   In Act now, a team of leading researchers presents a compelling and achievable vision for a progressive future. They outline clear policies for welfare, health and social care, education, housing and more. Arguing for a rolling forwards of the state, they call for a new era of active citizenship and economic democracy, grounded in robust and resilient institutions.   Only a comprehensive and integrated approach, based on clear evidence of feasibility and popularity, can provide a pathway to the secure, democratic and prosperous Britain of tomorrow. This book is the blueprint. It calls on politicians, pundits and the British people to act now. -- .\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45478036177117,"sku":"9781526180766","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781526180766.jpg?v=1720436544","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781526180766","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
