Paperback. Condición: New. Mass Market Paperback. When people are treated as active citizens, everything changes. Energise yourself 'An underground hit' - Best Politics Books, Financial Times 'Jon has one of the few big ideas that's easily applied' - Sam Conniff, Be More Pirate 'A wonderful guide to how to be human in the 21st C…entury' - Ece Temelkuran, How to Lose a Country With an introduction by Brian Eno Citizens opens up a new way of understanding ourselves and shows us what we must do to survive and thrive as individuals, organisations, and nations. Over the past decade, Jon Alexander's consultancy, the New Citizenship Project, has helped revitalise some of Britain's biggest organisations including the Co-op, the Guardian and the National Trust. Here, with the New York Timesbestselling writer Ariane Conrad, he shows how history is about to enter the age of the Citizen. Because when our institutions treat people as creative, empowered creatures rather than consumers, everything changes. Unleashing the power of everyone equips us to face the challenges of economic insecurity, climate crisis, public health threats, and polarisation. Citizens is an upbeat handbook, full of insights, clear examples to follow, and inspiring case studies, from the slums of Kenya to the backstreets of Birmingham - and a foreword by Brian Eno. It is the perfect pick-me-up for leaders, founders, elected officials - and citizens everywhere. An ideal companion to groundbreaking books such as Doughnut Economics and Radical Help. Organise and seize the future! Reviews 'Every great transformation requires a new story. A story that reveals new possibilities and points toward an optimistic alternative to the current situation. Citizens presents just such a story.' - Tim Brown, Chair of IDEO and author of Change By Design 'The shift from consumer to citizen is a truly big idea. If you're in a position of strategic influence, I strongly recommend you engage with this and consciously explore what it might mean for your organisation.' - Dame Fiona Reynolds DBE, Former Director General, National Trust, and Trustee, BBC 'The belief that every single one of us has both the potential and the desire to make the world better drives me every day, in everything I do. In Citizens, Jon shows how taking that belief as a starting point really could transform our world. This is a truly powerful book, in every sense of the word.' - Josh Babarinde, Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Entrepreneur 'There is such a thing as an idea whose time has come. This is that idea.' - James Perry, Board Member, B Lab Global, and Founding Partner, Snowball Investment Management About the Authors JON ALEXANDER began his career with success in advertising, winning the prestigious Big Creative Idea of the Year before making a dramatic change. Driven by a deep need to understand the impact on society of 3,000 commercial messages a day, he gathered three Masters degrees, exploring consumerism and its alternatives from every angle. In 2014, he co-founded the New Citizens.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Citizens by Jon Alexander is a bold, uplifting wakeup call for anyone who feels that democracy, community, and everyday life have been reduced to clicking, buying, complaining and waiting for them to fix it. If youre tired of politics-as-performance, brands-as-saviours, and institutions that… treat people like customers or problems to manage, this book hands you a different lens: the Citizen inside every one of us.Alexanders core idea is brilliantly simple and deeply practical: to change the future, we must change the story. He reveals the hidden narratives shaping modern society and why so many wellmeaning reforms fail because they keep the same assumptions in place.The three stories: The Consumer Story: were users, consumers, taxpayers, and voters-as-buyers. We demand, choose, and rate while organisations compete to serve us. The Subject Story: in fear and uncertainty, we trade agency for protection hierarchy, obedience, surveillance, and strongman certainty. The Citizen Story: we are interdependent, creative, empathic people who can participate, collaborate, and cocreate solutions. Citizenship becomes a verb: engagement, responsibility, belonging, contribution.With a foreword by Brian Eno and praise from leading voices in democracy, business, and social change, Citizens makes a persuasive case that the Citizen Story is already rising often beneath the media radar. From citizens selforganising in crisis to neighbourhood renewal, Alexander shows how citizen power and collective intelligence can outperform topdown command or market fixes when challenges are complex: climate change, inequality, polarisation, loneliness, and loss of trust.What youll get from this book: A fresh, memorable framework for democratic renewal, civic participation, and citizen-led change (ideal for readers of politics, social science, and systems thinking) A clear diagnosis of why consumerism cant solve the problems it created and why change without consequences is a dangerous fantasy Real-world stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary work f rom Birmingham and Berlin to Kibera, London, and Grimsbyproving that citizenship is not rare; its human Practical pathways to participatory democracy: citizens assemblies, deliberative democracy, participatory budgeting, community organising, volunteering, crowdfunding, civic tech, and open innovation A sector-by-sector roadmap for transforming the institutions that shape our lives: Citizen NGOs, Citizen Business, and Citizen Government Social acupuncture tools for leaders, organisers, and teams: find the leverage points where energy for a new way is ready to flow, then unlock itGrounded in the work of the New Citizenship Project, this is essential reading for anyone interested in community building, local governance, civic leadership, public service reform, ethical leadership, corporate responsibility, stakeholder capitalism, employee engagement, and rebuilding trust through transparency and participation.Citizens is designed to be used, not just admired. Its equally valuable for public servants, educators, nonprofit leaders, business leaders, community organisers, activists, and social entrepreneurs. It also includes questions for discussion and reflection ideal for book clubs, classrooms, leadership teams, and civic groups.If you want hope without handwaving and a practical, inspiring guide to participation, collaboration, and rebuilding democracy from the ground up Citizens will change how you see people, power, and possibility. Its a manifesto for democratic innovation and civic imagination: moving Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
