It has been recommended by the Financial Times and has received positive reviews from leaders, founders, elected officials, and citizens. The book argues that when our institutions treat people as creative, empowered creatures rather than consumers, everything changes, and unleashing the power of everyone equips us to face the challenges of economic insecurity, climate crisis, public health threats, and polarisation. It presents a story that reveals new possibilities and points toward an optimistic alternative to the current situation. The shift from consumer to citizen is a big idea that could change politics forever. The book is written by Jon Alexander and Ariane Conrad and features a foreword by Brian Eno. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 320 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 March 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Canbury Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Citizens  is an upbeat handbook,full of insights,clear examples to follow,and inspiring case studies,from the slums of Kenya to the backstreets of Birmingham – and a foreword by Brian Eno.
