Anti-Pluralism: The Populist Threat to Liberal Democracy (Politics and Culture) Audiobook (Free)
Summary:
The Great Tough economy, institutional dysfunction, a growing divide between urban and rural leads, and failed efforts to effectively address immigration possess paved the way to get a populist backlash that disrupts the postwar discount between political elites and citizens. Whether today’s populism represents a corrective to unfair and outdated insurance policies or a risk to liberal democracy itself remains up for issue. Yet this much is usually obvious: these difficulties indict the triumphalism that followed liberal democratic consolidation after the collapse of the Soviet Union. To react to today’s turmoil, good market leaders must strive for inclusive economic growth while dealing with fraught cultural and cultural problems, including demographic stress, with frank attention. Although reforms may stem the populist tide, liberal democratic existence will always leave some citizens unsatisfied. That is a long lasting way to obtain vulnerability, but liberal democracy will endure as long as people believe it is worthy of fighting for.
