At a time when many democracies are under strain around the world, Until We Have Won Our Liberty shines new light on the signal achievements of one of the contemporary era's most closely watched transitions away from minority rule. South Africa's democratic development has been messy, fiercely contested, and sometimes violent. But as Evan Lieberman argues, it has also offered a voice to the voiceless, unprecedented levels of government accountability, and tangible improvements in quality of life.

Decía Julio Scherer García que para entender la historia hay que analizar a los protagonistas. Y esta obra hace justamente eso: Demetrio Sodi, uno de los mayores conocedores de la política mexicana desde hace décadas, nos guía por los salones y los despachos donde se ha decidido la vida del país durante los últimos 40 años. Sodi de la Tijera —quien ha sido jefe delegacional, diputado, senador y activista, entre otros— nos cuenta los entresijos de las negociaciones, las tensiones ocultas, las amenazas, las razones hondas y las anécdotas más reveladoras.

Defying the Dragon tells a remarkable story of audacity—of how the people of Hong Kong challenged the PRC's authority, just as its president reached the height of his powers. Is China as unshakeable as it seems? What are its real interests in Hong Kong? Why are Beijing's means of control no longer working? Where does this leave Hongkongers themselves? Stephen Vines has lived in Hong Kong for over three decades. His book unpacks the Hong Kong-China relationship and its wider significance—right up to the astonishing convergence of political turmoil and international crisis.

The majority of Americans are far closer in values than the ideological opinion-shapers lead us to believe. This book asks how we can restore the civic unity that our political elites have worked for years to dismantle.

El proceso electoral de 2018 cerró diversos ciclos históricos: uno de 50 años, si se considera el movimiento de 1968 como arranque de la democratización; uno de 40, si se ubica en la reforma política de 1977 el inicio del camino hacia la pluralidad; o uno de tres décadas, si se considera a las elecciones de 1988 como el punto de quiebre de la transición. Lo cierto es que la democracia mexicana no nació el 1 de julio de 2018.

Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the modern world. It is ubiquitous-in our homes and offices, in the present and most certainly in the future. Today, we encounter AI as our distant ancestors once encountered fire. If we manage AI well, it will become a force for good, lighting the way to many transformative inventions. If we deploy it thoughtlessly, it will advance beyond our control. As AI policy experts Ben Buchanan and Andrew Imbrie show in The New Fire, few choices are more urgent—or more fascinating—than how we harness this technology and for what purpose.

For decades now wealth and power have been shifting from states to markets. This experiment has been a failure for all but a privileged few. But this trend is beginning to reverse, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has seen the state play the most direct and positive role in citizens’ everyday lives in living memory. Graeme Garrard makes a powerful case for the state as our only realistic hope of countering the rising power of multinational corporations, organized crime, and international organizations that will always put their own interests first.

2003 prägte Wolin in einem Zeitungsartikel den Begriff Inverted Totalitarianism (deutsch: Umgekehrter Totalitarismus). Mit dem Buch "Democracy Incorporated: Managed Democracy and the Specter of Inverted Totalitarianism" baute er 2008 seine Argumentation zum Inverted Totalitarianism aus. Die These dieses Werkes ist, dass am Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts mit dem Streben nach Superpower und dem Management von Demokratie in den USA eine postdemokratische Regierungstechnik entstanden sei, die Elemente der liberalen Demokratie mit denen totalitärer politischer Systeme verbinde.

The award-winning political theorist Yoram Hazony argues that the best hope for Western democracy is a return to the empiricist, religious, and nationalist traditions of America and Britain—the conservative traditions that brought greatness to the English-speaking nations and became the model for national freedom for the entire world. Conservatism: A Rediscovery explains how Anglo-American conservatism became a distinctive alternative to divine-right monarchy, Puritan theocracy, and liberal revolution.

Partindo da perspectiva de Roger Myerson que associa a forma federativa estatal à democracia em países em transição democrática, o autor realiza um estudo do processo centralizador ocorrido no Brasil mediante o uso abusivo do processo de emendamento constitucional.

En todo el mundo, las democracias se enfrentan a un enemigo nuevo e implacable que no tiene ejército ni armada; no procede de ningún país que podamos señalar en un mapa, porque no viene de ahí fuera, sino de aquí dentro. En lugar de desafiar a las sociedades libres con la destrucción desde el exterior, amenaza con corroerlas desde el interior.

La democracia es el espacio donde desembocan todos los ideales políticos de la modernidad. Ahí confluyen impulsos no sólo diversos sino incluso contrarios: la aspiración de identidad y pluralidad, de liderazgo y contrapesos, de libertad e igualdad, de soberanía y tolerancia, de participación y prudencia. Por ello, la contradicción no es un accidente de la democracia: es su esencia.

Trump, la Brexit, i risultati delle elezioni in molti paesi europei, la Turchia di Erdogan, l'India di Modi: prendono forza a livello globale tendenze che paiono sancire il divorzio fra la democrazia e i principi liberali che l'hanno innervata, soprattutto in Occidente. Eppure viviamo in un mondo che non vede affatto, come si crede, un peggioramento socioeconomico o un aumento delle diseguaglianze.

En sus distintas variantes, desde la ateniense hasta nuestros días, la democracia aparece como un sistema incuestionable que ha ido aumentando el grado de participación de los ciudadanos. En este libro, la politóloga Yanina Welp profundiza en la historia de las ideas y los Estados, los modelos que se establecieron en Europa y las Américas, la disputa por el significado de la democracia y del rol atribuido a la ciudadanía.

India's relations with the People's Republic of China have captured the popular imagination ever since the 1950s but have rarely merited a detailed understanding of the issues. Individual episodes tend to arouse lively debate, which often dissipates without a deeper exploration of the factors...

Una persona, un voto: la democrazia si basa su una promessa di uguaglianza che troppo spesso si infrange sul muro del denaro. Finanziamento delle campagne elettorali, donazioni ai partiti politici, controllo dei media: da decenni la vita democratica è prigioniera degli interessi privati.
