David Goodhart is a British journalist, commentator and author. David is the Head of the Demography, Immigration and Integration Unit at the think tank Policy Exchange and the founder and a former editor of Prospect magazine. David has authored four books, including The British Dream: Successes and Failures of Post-War Immigration, The Road to Somewhere: The Populist Revolt & The Future Of Politics, Head, Hand, Heart: The Struggle For Dignity And Status In The 21st Century, and most recently, The Care Dilemma: Caring Enough In The Age Of Sex Equality.

In this episode, we talk about David's latest book, the tension between the trade-offs in pursuing freedom over demands of care for dependents, how many government policies undervalue domestic roles and the negative impacts of this on society, children and mental health, how family policies have been driven by care egalitarians rather than care balancers and why this matters, the implications of low fertility rates on our ability as a society to care for our families in future, the paradox of female happiness despite advancements in women's liberation, the challenges men face in a changing socio-economic landscape, the political blind spots regarding family dynamics, and why David is calling for a re-evaluation of family policies to support stability and address the demographic shifts we are experiencing and much, much more.
