Demokratian kohtalo

About this book

Six writers approach the theme of democracy from different angles. In 100-year-old Finland, democracy has been a cornerstone of nation-building, even during times of war and insecurity. But in modern society, representative democracy is challenged not only by populist movements but also by new forms of co-determination, such as referendums and citizens' initiatives. What do these mean for today's democracy and for a future that seems increasingly uncertain. Does democracy have a future? And how? The "Demokratins öde" offers historical analysis and visions of the future
