The Politics of Participation

Více o knize

The book explores the paradox of contemporary democracy, where widespread belief in 'government by the people' coexists with frequent claims of a 'crisis of democracy.' It delves into the contrasting perspectives held by politicians and commentators, examining the implications of these views on the health of democratic systems. Through critical analysis, the author aims to reconcile the optimism surrounding democratic ideals with the concerns about their effectiveness and legitimacy in modern society.
