The Ideology of Democratism by Emily B. Finley
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 2 MB
Overview: A unique reinterpretation of democracy that shows how history’s most vocal champions of democracy from Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Thomas Jefferson to John Rawls have contributed to a pervasive, anti-democratic ideology, effectively redefining democracy to mean “rule by the elites.”
The rise of global populism reveals a tension in Western thinking about democracy. Warnings about the “populist threat” to democracy and “authoritarian” populism are now commonplace. However, as Emily B. Finley argues in The Ideology of Democratism, dismissing “populism” as anti-democratic is highly problematic. In effect, such arguments essentially reject the actual popular will in favor of a purely theoretical and abstract “will of the people.”
