The last half of the twentieth century has been an era of democratic triumph. The main antidemocratic regimes—communist, fascist, Nazi—have disappeared, and new democracies are emerging vigorously or tentatively throughout the world. In this accessible and authoritative book, one of the most prominent political theorists of our time provides a primer on democracy that clarifies what it is, why it is valuable, how it works, and what challenges it confronts in the future.
Robert Dahl begins with an overview of the early history of democracy. He goes on to discuss differences among democracies, criteria for a democratic process, basic institutions necessary for advancing the goals of democracy, and the social and economic conditions that favor the development and maintenance of these institutions. Along the way, he illustrates his points by describing different democratic countries, explaining, for example, why India, which seems to lack most of the conditions for a stable democracy, is nevertheless able to sustain one. Dahl answers such puzzling questions as why market-capitalism can both favor and harm democracy. And he concludes by examining the major problems that democratic countries will face in the twenty-first century, problems that will arise from complexities in the economic order, from internationalization, from cultural diversity, and from the difficulty of achieving an adequate level of citizen competence.

评分《论民主》这本书是美国学者罗伯特·达尔所著,和其他讨论与论述民主的鸿篇巨著相比,这本书可以说是相当“接地气”了。最重要的原因在于,这本书的内容浅显易懂、文字直截了当,没有过于专业的术语和深奥的表达, 在轻松地阅读过程中,让我们对何为民主、民主的标准是什么、怎...
评分之前看过达尔的一本《现代政治分析》,也许是因为今年看的书太杂太快,记忆不明了,总要看着目录才记得看了些什么。之后总还要再看一次这些书。 或许过早的接触了反民主的思想,对民主总有点鄙夷不屑,认为那只不过是大多数的暴政而已。因此也就带了些颜色来看这本...

老王卖瓜自卖自夸的一本力作。全篇论证流畅:“民主好啊“ ,就这个。说实话我觉得真不如Michael Hardt写得好。
评分也是那种大家写的通俗本。学理上有些漏洞,但文字上相当好。(这本书要看原文)
评分很烂
