Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the problems facing democratic societies caused by the withdrawal of ordinary citizens from active political participation. The author argues that when citizens do not take an active role in the political process, they become spectators rather than participants in their own governance. The result is that a small, self-interested political class emerges, which uses its power to advance its own interests at the expense of the public good. The author provides a detailed analysis of this problem, drawing on historical and contemporary examples. He also offers practical solutions, such as encouraging citizens to participate in primary elections and supporting independent candidates. This book is a timely and important contribution to our understanding of the challenges facing democracy in the 21st century. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the problems facing our political system and to find ways to make it more responsive to the needs of the people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330758700_0
