Kabuki Democracy: The System vs. Barack Obama
Autor Eric Altermanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 ian 2011 – vârsta de la 13 ani
In
this
agenda-setting
essay,
journalist
and
historian
Eric
Alterman
explains
what
is
really
happening
with
the
Obama
presidency.
While
Obama's
many
compromises
have
disappointed
liberals,
Alterman
argues
that
these
concessions
are
largely
due
to
a
political
system
that
is
rigged
against
progressive
change.
These
structural
impediments
to
democracy
have
made
the
keeping
of
Obama's
campaign
promises
all
but
impossible.
Brilliantly
blending
incisive
political
analysis
with
a
clear
agenda
for
change,Kabuki
Democracycuts
through
the
clichés
of
conservative
propaganda
and
lazy
mainstream
media
analysis
to
demonstrate
that
genuine
"change"
will
come
to
America
only
when
people
care
enough
to
challenge
the
system.
