Inhaltsangabe:

Today, some 80 nations can be described as fully democratic. Yet in numerous countries around the world, democracy has failed or is tottering, and in the United States its principles are increasingly under siege from corporate and other forces.

In What Would Jefferson Do? Thom Hartmann shows why democracy is not an aberration in human history but the oldest, most resilient, and most universal form of government, with roots in nature itself. He traces the history of democracy in the United States, identifies the most prevalent myths about it, and offers an inspiring yet realistic plan for transforming the political landscape and reviving Jefferson’s dream before it is too late.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Thom Hartmann is the host of a nationally syndicated progressive daily radio show, The Thom Hartmann Program, and the award-winning author of fourteen books. He lives in Portland, Oregon.
