“The renewal of capitalism and democracy must be animated by
a simple, but powerful, idea: that of citizenship…This is the tie that binds
people together in a free and democratic society…If that tie is dissolved, the
democratic polity will founder…
Citizenship must have three aspects: concern for the ability
of other citizens to have a fulfilled life; the desire to create an economy
that allows citizens to flourish in this way; and ,above all, loyalty to
democratic political and legal institutions and the values of open debate and
mutual tolerance that underpin them.”
