Description

Explore the complex global landscape of political governance with Decentring the West: The Idea of Democracy and the Struggle for Hegemony. Published by Routledge, this academic work examines why the definition of a democratic society remains unclear despite the near-universal acceptance of democracy as a legitimate form of government. The book analyzes how liberal democratic values face challenges from non-democratic regimes that claim to use local or culturally specific versions of democracy. It also investigates the tendency to label all institutions modeled on Western states as democratic by default. This text provides a necessary look at the foundations of global political thought and the struggle for hegemony in a changing world. It is an essential resource for those studying how political norms are established and contested on a global scale.
