Democracy!

Paolo Flores d'Arcais

After the success of Jesus, Paolo Flores d’Arcais thinks over the health and the action spaces of democracy, trying to identify its enemies and its weak points, in order to find some possible solutions for an actual and shared democratic action.

The concept of democracy had to adapt to several solicitations and to radical, social changings, that put in crisis not only the big ideologies, but also the ideals which used to keep together populations and nations. What is left of the concept of democracy, after the unpredictable rush of the history of the past few years? After decades of uncontrolled liberism, financial crises and the coming of the uncontrollable “strong powers”?
