Decades of increasing inequality, globalisation, technological change, unfettered markets and technocratic politics have given rise to ever more polarisation and populist sentiment. How do we gain a better, wiser politics in the context of these 21st century challenges? Can the progressive parties reconcile the concerns of the disenfranchised and angry without succumbing to xenophobia and anti-outsider sentiment? What are the new ideas and solutions that will help us?Renowned political philosopher Michael Sandel delivers an exclusive address on the future of democracy and our place within it.

Fostering an environment that values meritocracy, where the right person for the job is selected based on their skills, abilities, and relevant experience rather than solely on academic degrees or other superficial factors, is indeed crucial for effective decision-making. Meritocracy, in this sense, promotes fairness and competence in leadership and decision-making positions. So deficiencies of meritocracy can only be corrected with more meritocracy without allowing corruption

Mathew Taylor, when an audience member asks a question please allow the speaker to answer before trying to elaborate or interpret the question. It is very distracting to listen to a question and then an elaboration before the answer emerges. Michael Sandel, excellent speech. For so long have I heard the phrase that those who work hard will be rewarded. It is SO not true. Only with market forces is it true. I have worked 12 and 14 hour shifts as an emergency worker, not to be rewarded except by the knowledge that I have done a good job or saved a life. But there is no money in that. Thank you for explaining a new way to view contribution.

Sandel probably agrees with worker coops but never mentions them. This would bring him closer to the democratic socialist concept by bringing democracy to the workplace. At least coops could coexist with the traditional private enterprises. The problem is the plutocrats (1%) who block government’s real efforts to stimulate coops.
