Overview

Professors from the US, Australia, the UK, and several other western European countries present 15 contributions exploring democracy: the ideas and ideals contained in the concept; how notions of sovereignty, territoriality, nation, multiculturalism, representation, and rights of individuals, groups and communities are implicated in our understanding of democracy; what institutional manifestations these ideas and theoretical constructs have in the "real" world; and how democracy and democratic institutions will develop or change in the coming years. Written for university students of political science, international relations, and related fields, with minimal academic jargon and endnotes.
