Rövid leírás:
Democracy Unmoored focuses on populism's negative impact on democracies across the globe, covering not just wealthy democracies like the US and UK but countries like India, Argentina, Poland, and Brazil as well. In virtually every country experiencing a surge in populism, the populists' disregard for procedural norms is eroding the core institutions that uphold democracy. Sweeping in scope, this book provides a novel analysis of one of the defining trends in contemporary world politics.

A powerful new account of how populist movements are sabotaging political institutions from within and undermining democracies across the globe.
The 2016 election of Donald Trump focused people's minds on populism, and most of the attention paid to the subject since has been on the threat it poses to wealthy democracies. In Democracy Unmoored, Samuel Issacharoff takes a far wider-angle view of the phenomenon, covering countries from across the globe: Brazil, Poland, Argentina, Turkey, India, Hungary, Venezuela, and more. Just as importantly, he focuses on populism's attack on the institutions of governance. Democracy requires two critical features: first, a commitment to repeat play such that political actors understand that what goes around comes around; and, second, institutional constraints so that the majority can prevail, albeit not by too much. Democracies must avoid the doomsday scenario in which the contending parties see the next election as the final choice between salvation and perdition. Issacharoff shows how populist governance undermines each of these two critical underpinnings of stable democracy, first by compressing the time horizon to the immediate, and second by eroding institutional constraints on strongman rule. At the same time, Issacharoff highlights the fact that ascendent populists were pushing in an open door as they found democracies in states of disrepair in the post-2008 world. Electorates around the world had come to see institutional democratic party systems as cabals of elites working against "the people," which anti-institutionalist populists took advantage of in country after country. Global in coverage and featuring a powerful explanation of the true threat populism represents to democracy, this book will be essential reading for anyone who cares about the survival of democratic institutions.
There are few more important subjects than the future of democracy and few better people to analyze it than Samuel Issacharoff in this important and timely book.
