Description

"The key political novelty of our age is mass political awareness and mobilization. Mass mobilization has brought the Age of Empire to an end, and accounts for the failures in Iraq. Social mobilization can be a dramatic force for positive change." (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/reith2007/)
