INTERNETWORKED GOVERNMENT

The megastate that this century built is bankrupt, morally as well as financially. It has not delivered. But its successor cannot be “small government” (as the so-called conservatives want). There are far too many risks domestically and internationally. We need effective government—and that is what the voters in all developed countries are actually clamoring for.

Peter Drucker, 19951

Government bashing has become everyone’s favorite sport, but governments are central players in the new economy. They set the climate for wealth creation. They can act as a deadening hand on change or be a catalyst for creativity. They can cause economic stagnation through runaway deficits, or they can set a climate for growth. They can be blind to the challenges of transformation—for example, addressing issues that cannot be left to the market—or they can provide leadership.
