Inequality and Governance in an Uncertain World : Perspectives on Democratic & Autocratic Governments, Hardback Book

Inequality and Governance in an Uncertain World : Perspectives on Democratic & Autocratic Governments Hardback

Edited by Rekha Datta, Saliba Sarsar

Hardback

Description

In Inequality and Governance in an Uncertain World: Perspectives on Democratic & Autocratic Governments, the authors address structural and systemic inequalities in democratic and autocratic governments from a multidimensional perspective in nine world regions (Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, South Asia, East Asia, Eurasia, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, North America, and Latin America).

Their focus is on issues of race, caste, class, gender, religion, culture, and ethnicity which has intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The fragility of democracies is only enhanced by the sobering reality of the climate crisis and the horrible nature of disinformation through social media.

However, just as the world has been witnessing a shift toward autocracy, a commitment to democracy can be also possible through a renewal of the social contract, calling for more equitable social, economic, and health policies, obliterating the intersections of inequality, and trudging toward a more sustainable future for all.
