Description
The municipalist agenda has regained momentum across the world, as citizen platforms struggle to defend democracy against private, transnational threats strengthened by the global financial crisis. In order to revert some of the losses experienced by their citizens, both in terms of welfare and democratic autonomy, radical municipalist governments are not afraid to challenge national and supra-national political processes. The internationalisation of this movement by means of the creation of a network of Fearless Cities should be a priority for founders worldwide, in order to support and sustain progressive values and politics.
