An urgent exploration of the challenges facing democracy today

Recenzje

'Grayling incisively surveys attempts by Western thinkers, from Plato and Aristotle to Madison and Tocqueville, to resolve what he calls the "dilemma of democracy": the tension between the belief that power belongs ultimately to the people, and the desire for stable and humane government.' Wall Street Journal
