Welcome to Towards democracy, my new newsletter exploring progressive ideas, thinkers and community initiatives promoting grassroots democracy. Over coming months I will publish stories about a social media platform based on the commons; a media organisation where both the readers and journalists are represented on the boards; a Uyghur’s nightmarish story and his tireless campaign to try and get anyone to listen, and much more besides.
Kate Raworth introduced the concept of the Doughnut, the healthy and safe environment on earth, where 8 billion humans can thrive and lead meaningful lives whatever they may be.
We can transition to the Doughnut by Reclaiming the State (a book written by Bill Mitchell and Thomas Fazi) from its parasitic creditor oligarchs for the benefits of the citizens,
using public policies thoroughly informed by #MMT, Ethics, and Ecology to mobilise and allocate resources equitably and efficiently across the globe.
So perhaps I can suggest you change the blog from Towards Democracy to Towards the Doughnut in your next blog that will explain what the Doughnut is, and why it is vital that we move en masse to the Doughnut without any further delay.
