DAME MINOUCHE SHAFIK ON WHAT WE OWE EACH OTHER

Whether we realize it or not, all of us participate in the social contract every day.

Caring for others, paying taxes and benefiting from public services are a major part of what binds us together as a society.

Drawing on evidence and examples from around the world, in her new book What We Owe Each Other: A New Social Contract for a Better Society, director of the London School of Economics Dame Minouche Shafik shows how every country can provide citizens with the basics to have a decent life and be able to contribute to society.

But why stop there?

Join us for a glimpse at how we can build a better society together in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.
