Civil society space provides the oxygen for citizens to participate and meaningfully hold their governments and the private sector to account - and ensure that decisions are made in the interest of the majority and not the few. Without it, citizens have limited space to dissent and challenge the elites.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Der Raum der Zivilgesellschaft liefert den Sauerstoff für die Bürger, um mitzuwirken und ihre Regierungen und den privaten Sektor sinnvoll zur Rechenschaft zu ziehen - und sicherzustellen, dass Entscheidungen im Interesse der Mehrheit und nicht der wenigen getroffen werden. Ohne sie haben die Bürger nur begrenzten Raum, um die Eliten abzulehnen und herauszufordern.

Citizens United, I believe, will be regarded by history as one of the worst decisions this Supreme Court - or any Supreme Court - has ever made. It is distorting our political process and corrupting our government.

One's politics are part of one even when one is writing. But if I want to say anything about the state of civil society, I will write an essay. The responsibilities you feel as a novelist are literary ones, I think, not civic ones. And I think politicians are interesting to write about.
