Waves of Democracy : Social Movements and Political Change, Paperback / softback Book

Waves of Democracy : Social Movements and Political Change Paperback / softback

Part of the Sociology for a New Century Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Instead of presenting democracy as an ideal political system that humans only imperfectly realize, John Markoff conceptualizes democracy as something continually being reinvented.

Instead of reducing democracy to well-defined and routine practices and institutions such as elections and parliaments, Markoff shows how political movements have repeatedly challenged and remade existing institutions.

After reviewing two centuries of political conflict, he concludes with a thoughtful and exciting discussion on what democracy means today and what its future might be.
