We live in an age of fury and confusion where a new crisis erupts before the last one has finished. We scroll through social media in frustration and turn away from the news in despair. If we tune out, the thinking goes, life will get back to normal. Except, this is the new normal, and democracy only works if enough people stay engaged with the process. To ensure that we can do just that, award-winning journalist Rafael Behr takes us on a journey from despair at the current state of politics to belief that there just might be a better way of doing things. Behr is a political journalist and broadcaster with three decades of experience across an impressive range of media. He has drawn on this breadth of knowledge to produce an insightful alternative to the toxic atmosphere of modern politics: it is possible, he promises, to stay engaged without getting enraged.
