A Muchanticipated Guide To Saving Democracy, From One Of Our Most Essential Political Thinkers.Everyone Knows That Democracy Is In Trouble, But Do We Know What Democracy Actually Is? Janwerner Mller, Author Of The Widely Translated And Acclaimed What Is Populism?, Takes Us Back To Basics In Democracy Rules. In This Short, Elegant Volume, He Explains How Democracy Is Founded Not Just On Liberty And Equality, But Also On Uncertainty. The Latter Will Sound Unattractive At A Time When The Pandemic Has Created Unbearable Uncertainty For So Many. But It Is Crucial For Ensuring Democracys Dynamic And Creative Character, Which Remains One Of Its Signal Advantages Over Authoritarian Alternatives That Seek To Render Politics (And Individual Citizens) Completely Predictable.Mller Shows That We Need To Reinvigorate The Intermediary Institutions That Have Been Deemed Essential For Democracys Success Ever Since The Nineteenth Century: Political Parties And Free Media. Contrary To Conventional Wisdom, These Are Not Spent Forces In A Supposed Age Of Postparty Populist Leadership And Posttruth. Mller Suggests Concretely How Democracys Critical Infrastructure Of Intermediary Institutions Could Be Renovated, Reempowering Citizens While Also Preserving A Place For Professionals Such As Journalists And Judges. These Institutions Are Also Indispensable For Negotiating A Democratic Social Contract That Reverses The Secession Of Plutocrats And The Poorest From A Common Political World.
