Description
Democracy Under Siege: Don't Let Them Lock It Down! Frank Furedi examines the long history of anti-democratic thought and its resurgence in recent times. He argues that democracy is often seen as a means to an end, rather than an important value in itself. This perspective has gained significant influence over public life, particularly among those who hold elitist views on politics. Furedi explores why hostility to democracy has become more prevalent, and what this says about our cultural values. He offers a positive affirmation of the principle and value of democracy, highlighting its importance in modern society. By examining the roots of anti-democratic thought, Furedi aims to reinvigorate our understanding and appreciation of democracy. This timely analysis is essential reading for anyone interested in politics, democracy, and the role of citizens in shaping their societies.
