Is democracy failing? : a primer for the 21st century / by Dasandi, Niheer,author.; Taylor, Matthew,1960-editor.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 136-137) and index,.Only four countries around the world do not currently define themselves as democracies.

Since 2015, far-right and populist politicians have been on the rise throughout the West. Is populism the new face of democracy? Is democracy simply the will of the people? Can any existing government claim to be truly democratic? This captivating, articulate volume explores and interrogates each form of democracy and questions whether they remain fit for purpose today.
