About this listen
Editorial Reviews
For many people, democracy is often taken for granted. But this introduction to the topic from renowned social theorist David Beetham, whose lengthy résumé includes consulting on democracy with organizations like the Council of Europe, the Inter-Parliamentary Union and UNESCO, will provoke listeners to take pause and reconsider what this form of government means. Beginning with a definition and justification of democracy, this audiobook then moves on to more critical topics, such as sources of disillusionment within democracy. Voice performer Andrea Powell's smooth and nuanced narration elevates the material, making for an engrossing and thought-provoking listening experience.

Critic Reviews
“Beetham's book should stimulate anyone, beginner or expert, who is interested in the survival and renewal of democracy in the era of globalisation.” (Peter Singer – Author of The President Of Good And Evil: Taking George Bush Seriously)
“A strong and shrewd mixture of analysis and polemic…If more was not to come, I would call this the author's crowning achievement.” (Sir Bernard Crick – Advisor On Citizenship To The UK Government)
