American democracy is, in many people's minds, the model for the rest of the world. Fareed Zakaria points out that the American form of democracy is one of the least democratic in use today. Members of the Supreme Court and the Federal Reserve, institutions that fundamentally shape our lives, are appointed, not elected. The Bill of Rights enumerates a set of privileges to which citizens are entitled, no matter what the majority says. By restricting our democracy, we enhance our freedom.

Story0
Scholars have often claimed that democracies, whatever their virtues, are functionally short-sighted. The evidence is clear: We have been unable to manage many long-term issues, including climate change, nuclear waste disposal, natural disaster preparedness, infrastructure maintenance, and budget deficits. To solve long-term problems, do we need political systems that are less democratic, or even authoritarian?

Story0
Trump, la Brexit, i risultati delle elezioni in molti paesi europei, la Turchia di Erdogan, l'India di Modi: prendono forza a livello globale tendenze che paiono sancire il divorzio fra la democrazia e i principi liberali che l'hanno innervata, soprattutto in Occidente. Eppure viviamo in un mondo che non vede affatto, come si crede, un peggioramento socioeconomico o un aumento delle diseguaglianze.

«Hay que recuperar el respeto por los contenidos en la acción política, por la sustancia, por el fondo.» «El desafío es inmenso porque los cimientos de nuestras sociedades se están tambaleando, mientras el orden internacional amenaza con fragmentarse.» «Un partido emergente como Ciudadanos tiene un recorrido grande. Y el Partido Popular, si evita el riesgo de centrifugación y recupera el dinamismo de su proyecto político con una imagen reconocible para el electorado, no es un partido desahuciado.»

Imagine an imminent future where American voters are bombarded with personalized political messages from every smart device - at home, in cars, on sidewalks; the digital infosphere. Big Data so fine-tuned, no two voters hear the same proposition. You come home to a hologrammatic, AI-powered Donald Trump chatbot perched in your kitchen, asking personal questions - knowing everywhere you went, everything you searched, and how much you spent on lunch. We’re rushing toward this dystopia right now.

Leftists have long taught that people in the West must take responsibility for centuries of classism, racism, colonialism, patriarchy, and other gross injustices. Of course, right-wingers constantly ridicule this claim for its "wokeness." In Coming Clean, Eric Heinze rejects the idea that we should be less woke. In fact, we need more wokeness, but of a new kind. Yes, we must teach about these bleak pasts, but we must also educate the public about the left's own support for regimes that damaged and destroyed millions of lives for over a century.

Story0
The 20th century witnessed the triumph of democratic capitalism in the industrialized West, with widespread popular support for both free markets and representative elections. Today, that political consensus appears to be breaking down, disrupted by polarization and income inequality, widespread dissatisfaction with democratic institutions, and insurgent populism. Tracing the history of democratic capitalism over the past two centuries, Carles Boix explains how we got here - and where we could be headed.
