You wanna know what democracy is and where it comes from? (And how do we get it if we ain't got it?)
Forget all the "democratic theory" babble and "political philosophy" gibberish, the "Western Values" garbage and "Liberal ideas" gobbledygook, the "capitalism" nonsense and "middle class" baloney, the "constitutional tradition" hot air and Patriotic "fighting-for-democracy" masturbation, and especially the “march-of-history” drivel and all the “comes-with-modernity” noise.
Read this book. Then you’ll know.
