Taking Rabbi Hillel's three questions on philosophical stands, Rae does his best to define his vision of a progressive viewpoint on the government of Canada. A former Premier of Ontario, and once a prominent NDP politician Rae has useful insights on the manner in which this country's political policies can be constructed to benefit the largest number of Canadians. He has humaine tendencies, and in the age of right-wing resurgence in Canada his ideas do need a greater airing. It is a book that many American politicians should read in order to inform themselves on the full spectrum of political ideas alive in North America. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

If I am not for myself, who is for me? But if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when? Following his bestselling political memoir, the former premier of Ontario stepped back to consider the subject of responsibility in and for society. Structuring his thoughts on Rabbi Hillel's famous questions, he explores the roles of government, business, communities and individuals in the new economic and political reality of Canada. He confronts the most basic and urgent question of our time: in this age of globalism, in this period when the gulf between rich and poor is growing, what is our responsibility to ourselves and to others? Every successful society needs to recognize and reward individual success as well as demonstrate an organized capacity for social compassion. A successful politics will understand that pursuing both prosperity and the public good -- finding the right answers to the three questions -- is not easy. But the challenge must be met.
