Book Synopsis The Ideology of Democratism by : Emily B. Finley
Download or read book The Ideology of Democratism written by Emily B. Finley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-02 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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." She contends that the West has conceptualized democracy-not just its populist doppelgänger-as an ideal that has all of the features of a thoroughgoing political ideology which she labels "democratism." As she shows, this understanding of democracy, which constitutes an entire view of life and politics, has been and remains a powerful influence in America and leading Western European nations and their colonial satellites. Through a careful analysis of several of history's most vocal champions of democracy, including Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Thomas Jefferson, Woodrow Wilson, John Rawls, and American neoconservatives and liberal internationalists, Finley identifies an interpretation of democracy that effectively transforms the meaning of "rule by the people" into nearly its opposite. Making use of democratic language and claiming to speak for the people, many politicians, philosophers, academics, and others advocate a more "complete" and "genuine" form of democracy that in practice has little regard for the actual popular will. A heterodox argument that challenges the prevailing consensus of what democracy is and what it is supposed be, The Ideology of Democratism offers a timely and comprehensive assessment of the features and thrust of this powerful new view of democracy that has enchanted the West.

Each chapter does more than just introduce the reader to the classics; it also explains, via the commentary essay, the key concepts of political debate, and the historical contexts which led the thinkers to their different understandings of the nature of society.

Book Synopsis The Concepts And Philosophies Of Democratism by : Daley Waters
Download or read book The Concepts And Philosophies Of Democratism written by Daley Waters and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Without a need for the current political structure, the world cannot survive. Democracy has its philosophies and concepts, these are principles that make it unique and preferably among other systems of government. Even the society in which we live is diverse in terms of culture, thus it is crucial to implement a system of political values to make it manageable. The exact study of what democracy and the values that surround it stands for is exactly what this book does. If democratic concepts and philosophies were honestly implemented, society would have the best governance. Additionally, it confronts us with the awareness that democracy, in the words of a distinguished philosopher, is the rule of the people. Thus, a comparison of the irony between Democratism and Populism is made while also visualizing the philosophies of both movements.It's also important to understand that democracy is still necessary for today's politics, despite its flaws. Given that democracy is meant to be participatory and inclusive in its application. GRAB A COPY NOW AND READ THROUGH

Book Synopsis The Politics of Prudence by : Russell Kirk
Download or read book The Politics of Prudence written by Russell Kirk and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 30th Anniversary Edition with a new introduction by Michael Federici. Conservatives are guided by prudence. So taught Russell Kirk (1918–1994), one of the founding fathers of American conservatism. If the tradition of prudential politics has fallen on hard times, its comeback might well begin in the pages of this wise book. An understanding of prudence as practical wisdom, the capacity of choosing the right means to attain worthy ends, is much needed in our time. It is the virtue most associated with the statesman. Distinguishing political prudence from ideology, Kirk examines ten principles, events, books, and thinkers that have shaped the conservative mind and heart. The final chapter examines the shortcomings of democracy throughout the world and the need for representative government conducted by temperate and thoughtful men and women. In an eloquent epilogue, Kirk calls the rising generation to the defense of order—both the moral order and the social order, the order of the soul and the order of society—against the enemies of justice, freedom, and a high culture. Reflecting decades of learning and practical experience, this lucid book is Kirk's bequest to the young men and women of today, an instruction manual for redeeming the time.
