The United States of America is divided, its democracy is shaken and its Supreme Court politicized. But all is not lost.

In this interview George Packer speaks to the BBC's Justin Webb about how America got here, and how it can move forward. He presents a hopeful vision for a radical reform of American life - one that enables meaningful change, via policy, legislation, executive action, civic activism, scholarship and the media. Drawing on the best of American history - what once made it great - without being trapped in the past, Last Best Hope dares America to step into a new and better era.
