Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a deep dive into democracy and its history with a critical examination of the ways democratic power has been wielded in different contexts and the potential drawbacks that come with it. The author argues that while democracy has been recognized as the ideal form of governm…ent, there are numerous historical examples that expose flaws inherent to democracy, particularly when it exists with the power of the collective rather than that of wise leadership. The author draws on historical examples from ancient Greek and Roman civilizations as well as medieval and modern societies to explore why democracies so often fail and why the promise of popular government is nearly always destined to falter. The author also dissects the modern American experiment in democracy, arguing that the founding ideals of the United States have been abandoned and that, rather than the rule of law, the whims of the masses or the corrupted elite now reign supreme. This book offers a fresh perspective on democratic governance and is sure to provoke thought and spark discussion.
