In recent decades, popular sovereignty has come under increasing
pressure. The rise of populism, often illiberal or authoritarian,
has undermined minority rights, individual autonomy, and rule of
law. The expansion of international institutions and greater
reliance on market and non-governmental organizations have
gradually insulated large areas of policymaking from public
control. In turn, these developments cast doubt on the viability
and desirability of liberal democracy itself. When the People Rule
argues that comprehending and responding to the political crises of
our time requires a radical refocusing on popular sovereignty. Each
chapter offers a fresh perspective and opens new avenues of inquiry
into popular sovereignty, advancing debate over the very heart of
this principle - what it means for the people to rule. Thorough and
timely, this volume is also available as Open Access on Cambridge
Core.
