Our democracies are failing to prevent financial crises, energy shortages, climate change, and war--so how can we look to the future with confidence? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Jan Zielonka argues that it is democracy's shortsightedness that makes politics stumble in our increasingly connected world. With our governments still confined to the borders of nation-states, defending the short-term interests of present-day voters, the consequences for future generations are dire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this incisive account, Zielonka makes a bold case for a new politics of time and space. He considers how democracy should adjust to the world of high speed, and he questions our everyday experiences as citizens: Is it acceptable for authorities and firms to monitor our whereabouts? Why is the distribution of time and space so unequal? And, most crucially, can we construct a new system of governance that will allow us to plan ahead with certainty?","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45036409487511,"sku":"9780300262629","price":2436.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780300262629.webp?v=1769213264","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-lost-future-and-how-to-reclaim-it-9780300262629","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
