James Vitali: The Ownership Society, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Britain's economic stagnation is often blamed for a widespread sense of national malaise. But might the decline and dysfunction of modern British society have a deeper cause?

James Vitali, one of the rising stars of the British right, argues that our economic woes are merely symptoms of an underlying ethical disorder. Our shared prosperity rests upon a common set of moral values: responsibility, duty, and stewardship. Yet these values have been fatally undermined - by both the left and right. Their loss amounts to the destruction of Britain's culture of ownership. And this lack of ownership lies behind so many of Britain's biggest challenges, from our crisis in national self-confidence to the overburdened British state.

Only by restoring Britain's ethical bedrock - and building the property-owning democracy it requires - can we end our national malaise. Taking Ownership articulates the conservatism of a new generation: one that offers Britons an opportunity to take responsibility for themselves, for their communities, and for their loved ones. No one who cares about the future of Britain can afford to miss it.
