Inhaltsangabe

Democracy is increasingly seen as the only legitimate form of government, but few people would regard international relations as governed according to democratic principles. This book examines current democratic deficits, models of global politics that democrats could endorse, and promising pathways to global democratic change.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'Is global democracy a chimera, an oxymoron, or a utopia? The wide-ranging views in this book are essential reading for those seeking answers - opponents resisting the move beyond individual states as well as for proponents looking for future pathways toward supranational governance with fewer political inequalities.' Thomas G. Weiss, Presidential Professor of Political Science, The Graduate Center, The City University of New York

'This is an ambitious, well conceived, and important book that brings together normative and empirical perspectives on the notion of global democracy. The best scholars in the field illuminate the need to democratize international authority and analyze both the opportunities and limits of such an endeavor.' Michael Zürn, Director, The Social Science Research Center Berlin (WZB), and Professor for International Relations, Free University of Berlin
