Book excerpt: That's the advice CPRN's President, Judith Maxwell, gave to the Panel on the Role of Government, and outlines in a paper released today. [...] In The Great Social Transformation: Implications for the Social Role of Government in Ontario, Maxwell describes the tremendous changes in Ontario society over the past thirty years. [...] "Changes in the shape of our families, our work habits, our community life and in the roles markets and governments play have all shaken the assumptions of the post-war era," Maxwell says. [...] "At the same time, the systems for sharing risk have been weakened, or have not adapted to changing circumstances." "We need to re-examine our expectations of individuals, families, communities, markets and government in the light of the great social transformation of the past three decades. [...] This reciprocity between young and old is fundamental to the well-being of Ontario citizens in the coming decades." - 30 - CPRN is a national not-for-profit research institute whose mission is to create knowledge and lead public debate on social and economic issues important to the well-being of Canadians, in order to help build a more just, prosperous and caring society.
