In Democracy is Dangerous, Safford maintains that democracy is
disadvantageous to economic and intellectual elites. The author
dwells upon the problem of "the tyranny of the majority," which
Alexis de Tocqueville employed to describe American democracy, and
which Lani Guinier also used to describe the purpose behind her
legal writings. Rather than adopting an uncritical, enthusiastic
view of democracy, this work underscores the perspective of those
who perceive themselves as being vulnerable to majority tyranny. It
is especially relevant at this time because of the recent
revolutions throughout Eastern Europe and elsewhere.
