Listen "The Blunders of Our Governments"
Episode Synopsis
Why do governments, even with the best minds and the noblest intentions, so often get it wrong? Taking the route to Whitehall, Vanshika Saraf and Maria Ann Philip discuss the book The Blunders of Our Governments by Anthony King and Ivor Crewe, an enriching study of Britain’s political missteps. Reflecting on detailed examples by the authors, they probe why civic and institutional cultures lead to policy blunders, even in advanced democracies.
