A new social contract for our times | 直播影片RSA

The social contract shapes everything: our political institutions, legal systems and material conditions, but also the organisation of family and community, our well-being, relationships and life prospects. And yet everywhere, the social contract is failing.

At a time of global crisis, when we have an opportunity to think afresh about the future we want, visionary economist Minouche Shafik puts forward a new and hopeful framework for social, economic, and political recovery – one with profound implications for gender equality, 消磨时间宫, healthcare provision and the future of work.

Encouraging us to ask what we owe to each other – how we might better balance individual with collective responsibility, pool risks and share resources – Baroness Shafik identifies the key principles that every society must adopt if it is to meet the challenges of the coming century – and improve our life together.
