Democracy and Its Crisis

See all formats and editions

The EU referendum in the UK and Trump's victory in the USA sent shockwaves through our democratic systems.

In Democracy and Its Crisis A. C. Grayling investigates why the institutions of representative democracy seem unable to hold up against forces they were designed to manage, and why it matters. First he considers those moments in history when the challenges we face today were first encountered and what solutions were found.

Then he lays bare the specific threats facing democracy today. The paperback edition includes new material on the reforms that are needed to make our system truly democratic.
