Social & political philosophy

Hardback. In Western democracies today, politics and politicians are held in contempt by the majority of citizens. Bilakovics argues that this disdain of politics follows neither from the discontents of our liberal political system nor from the preoccupations of a consumer society. Rather, he traces the sources of political cynicism to democracy itself. Num Pages: 314 pages. BIC Classification: HPS; JPA; JPHV. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 239 x 166 x 26.
