On Thursday, Nobel laureate Amartya Sen addressed a packed Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford at an event to mark the publication of his The Idea of Justice. At a seminar that afternoon, he discussed the issues the book raises with a range of academics, policy makers and activists. They will be available this week on podcast – and include contributions by James Purnell and Angus Ritchie on the importance of powerful local communities. Angus’ talk makes particular reference to the forthcoming London Citizens assembly (see previous post).
