No person can isolate themselves from matters of state and enterprise.
Functional service and regulatory states – if grounded in principles of liberty, democracy and rule of law -– provide life support for all.
Functional service and regulatory states – if grounded in principles of liberty, democracy and rule of law -– provide life support for all.
Differences within societies - especially free societies – are unavoidable. Deep divisions now threatening social bonds, institutions of governance and foundation principles are avoidable if causes are addressed.
No single template or checklist exists to measure the success of these fragile human systems. People must continually define and aspire to high ideals and principles.
Greater public knowledge and dialogue can soothe divisions, drive innovation, defend legacies of law and liberty and build new unifying principles.
Public and private sector innovation is vital to ensure gateways to progress for all are removed, but it must be balanced with protection of positive legacies of law, liberty, democratic and functional governance and dynamic, fair and sustainable commerce. Status quo forces must get on board.
Solutions to major threats – to economies, commerce, social well-being, security, the environment and public health – depend on effective individual and group actions – public and private - that in turn depend on these principles.
