I am starting to think that “inclusivity” will become the rallying cry of 21st-century activists, replacing the over- and mis-used term “democracy.”

We are delighted to see the Prime Minister emphasize the importance of inclusive political institutions. He even went further and recognized that making political institutions inclusive is not the natural instinct of politicians (stating that “Transparency brings risks”). In fact, many politicians and elites actively work to maintain extractive institutions in place. This will not change overnight, but more political and intellectual leaders emphasizing the importance of inclusive institutions and the role of politicians and elites in creating and maintaining the institutions that are at the root of much of the poverty around the world is a very very important first step. -- -- Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community <[email protected]> Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/RadicalCentrism Radical Centrism website and blog: http://RadicalCentrism.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Centroids: The Center of the Radical Centrist Community" group.
