Post-Foundational Theories of Democracy: Reclaiming Freedom, Equality, Solidarity

Exploring the tension between post-structuralist critiques and democratic ideals, this book examines whether contemporary society is experiencing a decline in democracy or a resurgence of democratic movements. It analyzes recent revolutions in the West and the Arab world to question the viability of alternatives to existing democratic frameworks. Oliver Marchart introduces a new theoretical model rooted in post-foundational democratic thought, aiming to bridge the gap between these conflicting perspectives and address the complexities of modern democracy.
