Synopsis

Against a background of rapid social change and new evidence about the relationship between individual autonomy, social change and structural inequality, Politics for a New Generation invites some of the leading lights of the Labour government and some of the best new thinkers from the younger generation of Labour politicians to renew progressive thought. It argues that 2007 represents a 'progressive moment' - a critical point at which Britain could enter into a new era of progressive economic and social change and outlines the substantive policy agenda that could get us there.
