Este libro se centra en los procesos que ayudan a estabilizar la democracia. Proporciona un análisis sociohistórico de las perspectivas futuras de la democracia. Se enfatiza el vínculo entre el capitalismo avanzado y la democracia, centrándose en el derecho contractual y la separación de la economía del Estado. El libro también enfatiza los efectos positivos de la visión científica del mundo sobre la autoridad legal-racional. Se destaca la teoría de Aristóteles sobre la clase media mayoritaria y su efecto estabilizador sobre la democracia. Este libro describe las democracias cara a cara del pasado para darnos una mejor perspectiva de las democracias de alta tecnología del futuro, haciéndolo atractivo para estudiantes y académicos de ciencias políticas y sociales. |
