Additional Information
Description
From Daron Acemoglu, the Nobel Prize-winning co-author of the global phenomenon Why Nations Fail, comes a vital, visionary exploration of the rise, fall, and urgent renewal of liberal democracy.
About the Book: From its inception, liberalism offered a glittering, transformative promise: shared prosperity, universal equality, democratic values, and the free pursuit of knowledge. For a time, it flourished. But then it faltered. Once a tantalizing beacon of hope, liberal democracy began to erode and decay from within at the hands of entrenched elitism, rising intolerance, and encroaching autocracy.
One could easily say that liberalism is broken—so what comes next?
In this brilliant and insightful tour de force, Nobel laureate Daron Acemoglu charts the historical trajectory of liberal institutions and diagnoses the root causes of their current crisis. Crucially, he does not stop at critique; he offers a powerful message of hope and a pioneering new theory. Laying the essential groundwork for how we can—and must—remake liberalism before it is too late, What Happened to Liberal Democracy? is an indispensable manifesto for anyone invested in the future of freedom, equity, and shared prosperity.
