The Future as a Political Idea - Professor Jonathan White

Introduction to Jonathan White's new book In the Long Run: the Future as a Political Idea. A revealing history of the future as a political idea, from the Enlightenment to the current climate crisis. Democracy is future-oriented and self-correcting: today's problems can be solved, we are told, in tomorrow's elections. But the biggest issues facing the modern world - from climate collapse and pandemics to recession and world war - each apparently bring us to the edge of the irreversible. What happens to democracy when the future seems no longer open? Jonathan White investigates how politics has long been directed by shifting visions of the future.
