Essay · Geopolitics
Imperial Democracy
Antoine Nguidjol
A genealogy of a global political myth and a critical examination of its universal claims.
About this book
Contemporary democracy readily presents itself as a universal model destined to spread everywhere along the same path. This essay examines the genealogy of that global political narrative and the power relations it may conceal. Bringing history, philosophy and geopolitics into dialogue, Antoine Nguidjol distinguishes the democratic ideal from its imperial uses and reopens the question of political plurality.
The enriched edition, including the preface and afterword, is currently being published. Its EPUB will be offered directly by Merisphere.
