- How all this becomes even more imperative in a post-Covid-19 world of mass furlough and support schemes to unprecedented levels of surveillance
Speakers
For over a century, the most divisive question in political thought has been about the size of the state. Should it expand and take an active role in many areas of life? Or is that meddlesome and wasteful?
This dilemma might have made sense in earlier decades. Now, with a world transformed by Covid-19 and a revolution unfolding in the technologies of organisation, a great upheaval is also coming in the essential business of government.
Join author Jaideep Prabhu as he discusses his new book, How should a government be? You’ll hear about government initiatives across the globe and explore new levers of state power, as we discuss what the future of government might look like, and how governments can better deliver for their citizens.
