More about the book

Critiquing binary majority rule, the book explores its failure to represent the people's will, linking it to the rise of populism and conflicts in various regions, including Europe and Asia. The author draws on personal experience to argue that simple majority voting can lead to division and dysfunction in democracies and war zones. To enhance democratic stability, the book advocates for an all-party power-sharing approach and presents alternative voting methods, such as the Modified Borda Count, through case studies from diverse geopolitical contexts.
