Summary

For a large proportion of the electorate, national politics misses the real issues. As a result, membership of campaigning organizations has soared while party numbers have declined. This book distils the principles and priorities of many of the leading voluntary groups into a strong and coherent program of political aims and actions. The problem can be measured as a "sustainability gap" -- between official policies and achievements and actual democratic participation, environmental restoration, and the eradication of poverty. With abundant examples and short case studies, it translates the gap into practical and realistic recommendations for progress -- ones that have the unofficial 'votes' of more than 4 million subscribing members behind them.
