Description

The more governments promise, the more we mistrust them. Something has to change.Travelling to some of the fastest-emerging nations, John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge argue that the West needs a new revolution in the history of the state, rethinking the role of government and its place in our lives. 'A book with an important message. It is also one that brims with intelligence, erudition, and-best of all-common sense.' Fareed Zakaria 'Brilliantly incisive, sparkling . . . Having repeatedly reinvented the state to deliver law and order, liberty and welfare, they argue, the West now needs a 'fourth revolution' to create a leaner, more efficient state. It is a compelling argument.' Daniel Johnson, Standpoint 'Part handbook for reformers, part manifesto and part history of the state ... an attempt to save big government from itself.' Daniel Finkelstein, The Times
