An insightful reading of early democratic
philosophers and how America and other
modem democracies have veered too far from
their fundamental roots
In
1989,
the Cold War abruptly ended, and
it seemed as if the world was at last safe
for democracy. But a spirit of uneasiness,
discontent, and world-weariness soon arose
and has persisted in Europe, America, and
elsewhere for two decades. To understand
the meaning of this modern political mal¬
aise, Paul A. Rahe examines the nature of
liberal democracy through a detailed, vivid
investigation of the thinking of Montes¬
quieu, Rousseau, and Tocqueville.
Paul A. Rahe argues that these political
thinkers anticipated the modern liberal
republic and its propensity to drift in the
direction of soft despotism —a condition
that arises within a democracy when
paternalistic state power expands and
gradually undermines the spirit of self-
government. Such an eventuality, feared
by Tocqueville in the nineteenth century,
has now become a reality throughout the
European Union, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand, and the
United States.
Rahe
asserts
a persuasive argument
through
brilliant readings of three great democratic
philosophers and explains what must be
done to reverse this unfortunate trend.
