Omslag till James Cairns & Alan Sears: Democratic Imagination (PDF)

Democracy is very much an open question in the early twenty-first century. While voter participation declines in many traditional democracies, new movements for democracy are emerging around the world. This book brings the question of democracy out of the halls of political power and home to our daily lives, pitting "official democracy" and "democracy from below" against one another in a lively debate.For more information see www.democraticimagination.com.
