Introduction

Catherine Carr: Talking Politics is brought to you in partnership with the London Reviewer Books. The LRB publish a reading list of relevant writing from the archive to accompany every episode on lrb.co.uk. This week, we look at how British democracy can be reformed. Catherine says it's not an insuperable problem because democratic politics does reform itself. But it's very rare to get the set up rights and incentives which create the right set of incentives.
