    Its a dangerous world: a deepening economic crisis, the euro disintegrating, Britain nearly broke and heading for breakup, ongoing war in Afghanistan and another one threatened against Iran… The old ideas are bust too: free market economics, privatisation, imperialism, the democracy of plutocracy…all of them out of date and out of place.

    So now is the time for dangerous ideas: for the new, the seditious, the marginalised, the ridiculed, the road less travelled…
