Summary
Colin Crouch: Post-democracy
Colin Crouch claims that the decline of social classes that enabled the creation of active politics with a foothold in the broader strata and the rise of global capitalism led to the creation of a complacent political class that previously cared about meeting the business interests of the wealthy class, rather than implementing political programs that deal with the problems of ordinary people. He shows that politics at the dawn of the XXI century, in a certain sense, resembles that of the end of the XIX century, when politics represented a game that took place among the elite. Crouch, however, also points out that the experience of the 20th century is still present and reminds us of the possibilities of reviving democratic engagement.
Post-democracy rejects claims that modern advanced societies are the best of all democratic worlds so far. In our political systems, democratic institutions still formally exist, but citizens and politicians have not breathed life into them for a long time. Soon after the publication of this short study, the term post-democracy became indispensable in the discussion about the saturation of politics, the dismantling of the welfare state and privatization. The book had an extraordinary success in Britain and continental Europe, and is one of the most translated works of contemporary political theory.
