In Citizens: Why the Key to Fixing Everything is All of Us, Jon Alexander presents a compelling vision for societal change by shifting from the Consumer Story to the empowering Citizen Story. Drawing on insights from the New Citizenship Project, he argues that recognizing individuals as engaged citizens can tackle pressing challenges like economic insecurity and climate crises. With practical examples and a foreword by Brian Eno, Citizens serves as both an inspiring guide and a call to action. Alexander emphasizes the importance of participation and collaboration in reshaping our institutions, encouraging readers to embrace their roles as active contributors to their communities. This engaging narrative offers a hopeful roadmap for fostering a more inclusive and participatory world.
