Democracy: The God That Failed

Mises Institute
Democracy: The God That Failed

This book is a systematic treatment of the historic transformation of the West from limited monarchy to unlimited democracy. Revisionist in nature, it reaches the conclusion that monarchy, with all its failings, is a lesser evil than mass democracy, but outlines deficiencies in both as systems of guarding liberty. Narrated by Paul Strikwerda. © 2001 Taylor and Francis, published 2017 by Routledge, an imprint of the Taylor and Francis Group.
