Evolutionary Basic Democracy
The Theories, Concepts and Practices of Democracy
The discourse of democracy suffers from ambiguity: its literature is too vast and there is no codified understanding of its theories, concepts and practices. The uncertainties surrounding the meaning of democracy resulted in serious political problems for all levels of democratic government – both historically and presently. The literature on democracy is so vast that it is highly improbable for one person to understand the core of this mass. Such an understanding is, however, needed to resolve the problematic ambiguity associated with democracy. The aim of this book series is to define, analyse and organize democracy’s hundreds of theories, concepts and practices. The objectives, supporting this aim, are as follows: – Curate and consider works on democracy; – Identify and fill gaps in the literature on historical and contemporary democracies; – Find opportunities to synthesize or separate specific theories, concepts or practices of democracy. Titles include: Mark Chou Theorising Democide Why and How Democracies Fail Ramin Jahanbegloo Democracy in Iran Jean-Paul Gagnon Evolutionary Basic Democracy A Critical Overture
