Recenzje

This wonderfully topical and highly insightful monograph deserves to become the go-to resource for anyone wanting a clear overview and sophisticated assessment of the wide array of attempts to complement, re-invigorate, and correct the current performances of representative democracies across the world. No doubt the best monograph on democratic politics by a Dutch political scientist since Arend Lijphart's modern classic Patterns of Democracy (1999).
