Our mission is to develop and promote thinking that strengthens liberal democracy
The Problem
Modern liberal democracy is facing a crisis of legitimacy. For decades, its framework—built on globalization, meritocracy, moral equality, and capitalism—has remained largely unchanged since the post-war era.
Voters have increasingly rejected key aspects of this system, expressing concerns that politicians either dismiss or address with superficial reforms. Like a rigid church refusing to evolve with its congregation, democracy risks losing its connection to the people it serves.
/ What We Do About It
Conduct research that applies scientific insights (behavioural biology, neuroscience, psychology) to political challenges.
Develop frameworks that align political systems with human nature and societal stability.
Communicate ideas that influence policymakers, institutions, and public discourse
Liberalism's Misalignment
The current political order is misaligned with human nature. People prefer fairness over abstract equality, controlled borders over unchecked immigration, and economic systems that reward contribution rather than entrench elite privilege. Yet, political leaders continue to operate within a framework that ignores these preferences, reinforcing hierarchies and protecting systems that voters no longer trust.
Without meaningful change, disillusionment will only grow, pushing people toward alternative—and potentially dangerous—political movements.
/ How We Reallign
Through rigorous, interdisciplinary research that identifies flaws in current democratic structures.
By publishing reports, articles, and thought leadership pieces that inform decision-making.
Aggressively marketing ideas to political leaders, current and future. ​
Democracy Evolved
Liberal democracy must evolve to remain relevant. Instead of dismissing voter concerns, political leaders must construct a system that respects human nature while upholding democratic values.
This means rethinking globalization, redefining fairness in economic and social policies, and ensuring that power remains accountable to the people.
If we fail to rewrite the rules, others will do it for us—and the future of democracy may not be in our hands.
