Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Unless you love in a democracy, in which case you really do have a responsibility to be involved. Instead of being completely removed from larger concerns, it would be better to understand the scale and size of your role, and then keep it to that scale within your own life.
In Voltaire's time, this was good advice. But, we live in a world in which the entire human race is threatened by climate change and the threat of nuclear extermination. We cannot be disengaged from politics.
Voltaire chose to communicate his message that we should all live, in essence, small lives using as his vehicle a tour de force novel read by millions. Interesting.
