We drink too much, pollute too much and exercise too little. Smoking, drug-taking and anti social behaviour remain stubbornly high.

No wonder policy makers are very keen to find new and cost- effective ways of getting us to change our behaviour.

Governments are increasingly drawing on new academic thinking in psychology and economics- work closely associated with American behaviour-change gurus like Richard Thaler and Robert Cialdini. And public pledges are seen as one of the most promising tools in the behaviour-change tool box. But are they the panacea to tackle our social problems or are promises just made to be broken? Presented by Ben Rogers.
