L'alerte démocratique - Nicolas Baverez
- In french. First published in 2020 (e-book).
What if democracy disappears before our eyes. Unthinkable? However, it is today in a state of emergency, threatened by its own citizens tempted by demagoguery and authoritarianism. Far from taking the measure of the danger, we look away at the insidious corruption of our institutions and our public life. We reassure ourselves on the cheap by mocking the populist leaders or reducing them to a simple parenthesis that will close quickly.
-> "Quite a disappointment... A book with many many repetition of simplistic ideas and anti muslim at that. Nothing out of the ordinary of your "neighbour's perception of the world". Hated it."
