Degenerations of Democracy

Craig Calhoun, Charles Taylor, Dilip Gaonkar

Book · 2022 · Harvard University Press

Abstract

Craig Calhoun, Dilip Gaonkar, and Charles Taylor argue that democracies have embraced individual freedom at the expense of equality and solidarity, economic growth at the expense of democracy. Rebuilding local communities and large-scale institutions is now crucial, with attention to the public good beyond private advantage or ingroup loyalty.
