Compulsory Voting: For and Against
ISBN: 9781107041516 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In many democracies, voter turnout is low and getting lower. If the people choose not to govern themselves, should they be forced to do so? For Jason Brennan, compulsory voting is unjust and a petty violation of citizens' liberty. The median non-voter is less informed and rational, as well as more biased, than the median voter. According to Lisa Hill, compulsory voting is a reasonable imposition on personal liberty. Hill points to the discernible benefits of compulsory voting and argues that high turnout elections are more democratically legitimate. The authors - both well-known for their...

Libertarianism: What Everyone Needs to Know(r)
ISBN: 9780199933891 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Historically, Americans have seen libertarians as far outside the mainstream, but with the rise of the Tea Party movement, libertarian principles have risen to the forefront of Republican politics. But libertarianism is more than the philosophy of individual freedom and unfettered markets that Republicans have embraced. Indeed, as Jason Brennan points out, libertarianism is a quite different--and far richer--system of thought than most of us suspect. In this timely new entry in Oxford's acclaimed series What Everyone Needs to Know(R), Brennan offers a nuanced portrait of...

Democracy: A Guided Tour
ISBN: 9780197558812 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How did "democracy" go from a pejorative label for mob rule to the widely shared ideal of enlightened self-rule? How has it evolved as an idea and a set of practices? How have the ways democracy has been practiced impacted the idea of democracy itself? In this short, accessible book, leading democratic theorist Jason Brennan guides readers through the evolution of the concept of democracy and actual democratic practice over time to help them understand the foundations of this longstanding and yet newly fragile political system. In his wide-ranging tour of the concept, Brennan will examine...

Against Democracy
ISBN: 9780691162607 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Most people believe democracy is a uniquely just form of government. They believe people have the right to an equal share of political power. And they believe that political participation is good for us--it empowers us, helps us get what we want, and tends to make us smarter, more virtuous, and more caring for one another. These are some of our most cherished ideas about democracy. But, Jason Brennan says, they are all wrong. In this trenchant book, Brennan argues that democracy should be judged by its results--and the results are not good enough. Just as defendants have a right to a...
