“Show me what democracy looks like. This is what democracy looks like.” In recent years, such chants – in the main aimed at democratically-elected governments by free citizens – have become common in anti-government protests across the world. Something is clearly amiss with democracy. In Authentic Democracy, this democratic deficit is exposed. By unpacking the underlying arguments and assumptions which justify the current political order, Authentic Democracy shows that the existing democracies are in fact highly undemocratic; and that anarchism is what authentic democracy looks like.
