For years, intellectuals have argued that, with the triumph of
capitalist, liberal democracy, the Western World has reached "the
end of history." Recently, however, there has been a rise of
authoritarian politics in many countries. Concepts of
post-democracy, anti-politics, and the like are gaining currency in
theoretical and political debate. Now that capitalist democracies
are facing seismic and systemic challenges, it becomes increasingly
important to investigate not only the inherent antagonism between
liberalism and the democratic process, but also socialism. Is
socialism an enemy of democracy? Could socialism develop, expand,
even enhance democracy? While this volume seeks a reappraisal of
existing liberal democracy today, its main goal is to help lay the
foundation for new visions and practices in developing a real
socialist democracy. Amid the contradictions of neoliberal
capitalism today, the responsibility to sort out the relationship
between socialism and democracy has never been greater. No revival
of socialist politics in the twenty-first century can occur without
founding new democratic institutions and practices.
