Inhaltsangabe

Democracy has been established as an uncontested ideal while regimes inspired by this form of government now fall under constant criticism. Hence, the steady erosion of confidence in representatives has become a major political phenomenon. Counter-Democracy offers a unique perspective on the unsettled and confusing state of world politics today.
