Public confidence and trust in government is low these days.
Farnsworth pinpoints this disappointment to shifting expectations
of what, exactly, government should do. Politicians were once
expected to maintain economic growth, but in our post-scarcity era
most citizens expect them to provide services - such as welfare or
environmental -that are often contentious. Enlarging the scope of
local political empowerment will increase public support by making
politics more approachable and responsive.
