Democracy’s Discontent
A New Edition for Our Perilous Times
«Americans have lost faith in the possibility of self-government, and they are frightened by the disintegration of community they see happening all around them. Twenty-six years since Democracy’s Discontent was first published, Sandel writes that this way of thinking has brought us to a political precipice—a moment when the combination of frayed social bonds and intense political polarization calls into question the very future of the American experiment.»

«Americans have lost faith in the possibility of self-government, and they are frightened by the disintegration of community they see happening all around them.

Win McCormack, New Republic
«Few books are as relevant a quarter-century after their appearance as when published—but Michael Sandel has made his classic Democracy’s Discontent even more so. Rethinking how the political economy of the middle of the twentieth century has mutated to the detriment of American citizenship, substituting consumerism and globalization for community and self-rule, this is a touchstone study for our times.»
Samuel Moyn, author of <i>Not Enough: Human Rights in an Unequal World</i>
«Michael Sandel’s deeply insightful analysis of the erosion of the political economy of citizenship has never been more timely than at the present moment. Essential—and ultimately hopeful—reading for all those who wonder if our democratic experiment will survive in the twenty-first century.»
Greta R. Krippner, author of <i>Capitalizing on Crisis: The Political Origins of the Rise of Finance
