Safeguarding the Future: In an era of populist politics, Brexit, Donald Trump, 24-hour news cycles and perpetual election campaigning, Jonathan Boston's new BWB text arrives at a much needed time. How, Boston asks, we can govern well for the future. How do we take the long view, ensuring that present-day policy decisions reflect the needs and safeguard the interests of future generations?
