More about the book
The book presents a bold analysis of modern politics, arguing that stable liberal democracy hinges on the unity of self-interested elites who can promote a coherent political agenda. It emphasizes that without this essential element, the future of lasting democracy becomes increasingly uncertain. The study provides a realistic perspective on the dynamics of power and governance, challenging conventional notions of political possibility.
