We Need More Parties

Více o knize

The book examines the deep-rooted issues within American democracy, attributing the crisis not solely to partisanship but primarily to the two-party system. Political scientist Lee Drutman argues that this system fosters a harmful dynamic, compelling voters to choose between undesirable options, which exacerbates partisan division, undermines political legitimacy, and leads to widespread citizen disaffection. The analysis highlights the urgent need to reconsider the structure of American political representation.
