Zusammenfassung: | "How an iron fist donned democracy's velvet glove. The history of universal suffrage is best understood as a conflict between liberal elites and democratic workers' movements, according to Domenico Losurdo. John Stuart Mill, for example, argued that electoral influence should be more pronounced among the educated -- and wealthy -- than among those working with their hands. Every vote ought not to be counted the same. Countries with deep liberal roots have historically been quick to restrain the spread of the franchise, persisting in discrimination based on property, race, and gender. In this context, the rise of popular presidents and premiers, vested with extraordinary powers, has served to stimy attempts to associate politically and mobilize for meaningful change. This is modern Bonapartism, a soft authoritarianism in which popularity, stirred up by a news media dominated by the interests of the rich, replaces true democratic expression. As alternatives to this system drift toward the horizon, Bonapartism is set to become the dominant political regime of our era. Understanding the history of its development and the contradictory forces behind it may permit us to move towards true democracy."-- |

The history of universal suffrage is best understood as a conflict between liberal elites and democratic workers' movements, according to Domenico Losurdo. John Stuart Mill, for example, argued that electoral influence should be more pronounced among the educated -- and wealthy -- than among those working with their hands. Every vote ought not to be counted the same. Countries with deep liberal roots have historically been quick to restrain the spread of the franchise, persisting in discrimination based on property, race, and gender. In this context, the rise of popular presidents and premiers, vested with extraordinary powers, has served to stimy attempts to associate politically and mobilize for meaningful change. This is modern Bonapartism, a soft authoritarianism in which popularity, stirred up by a news media dominated by the interests of the rich, replaces true democratic expression. As alternatives to this system drift toward the horizon, Bonapartism is set to become the dominant political regime of our era.

The history of universal suffrage is best understood as a conflict between liberal elites and democratic workers' movements, according to Domenico Losurdo. John Stuart Mill, for example, argued that electoral influence should be more pronounced among the educated -- and wealthy -- than among those working with their hands. Every vote ought not to be counted the same. Countries with deep liberal roots have historically been quick to restrain the spread of the franchise, persisting in discrimination based on property, race, and gender. In this context, the rise of popular presidents and premiers, vested with extraordinary powers, has served to stimy attempts to associate politically and mobilize for meaningful change. This is modern Bonapartism, a soft authoritarianism in which popularity, stirred up by a news media dominated by the interests of the rich, replaces true democratic expression. As alternatives to this system drift toward the horizon, Bonapartism is set to become the dominant political regime of our era. Understanding the history of its development and the contradictory forces behind it may permit us to move towards true democracy."-- Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Bonapartismus (DE-588)4007637-4 gnd rswk-swf Demokratie (DE-588)4011413-2 gnd rswk-swf Legitimation (DE-588)4114382-6 gnd rswk-swf Wahlrecht (DE-588)4064302-5 gnd rswk-swf Suffrage / History Representative government and representation / History Bonapartism / History Suffrage / Histoire Gouvernement représentatif / Histoire Bonapartisme / Histoire Bonapartism Representative government and representation Suffrage History Napoleon Bonaparte (1769 - 1821) (DE-2581)TH000005412 gbd Demokratie, Verfassungsform (DE-2581)TH000006765 gbd Rezeption & Wirkungsgeschichte (DE-2581)TH000005250 gbd Demokratie (DE-588)4011413-2 s Legitimation (DE-588)4114382-6 s Wahlrecht (DE-588)4064302-5 s Bonapartismus (DE-588)4007637-4 s Geschichte z DE-604 Canfora, Luciano 1942- (DE-588)120730359 wpr Broder, David 1991- (DE-588)1135307660 trl Online version Losurdo, Domenico Democracy or Bonapartism London ; New York : Verso, 2024 9781784787332 Digitalisierung BSB München - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=035041704&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
