Democracy and Democratization

This address considers four questions arising at a time when democracy enjoys unprecedented global popularity but also faces severe problems. The first question is why democracy as a “political method” should be chosen; second, the character of democratization; third, the paradox of universal principles of democracy and rights that depend on membership of particular states and nations; and, fourth, the operation of the political method, inequality, and security of the person. The address concludes with some reflections on the current attack on universalism and the need for new thinking about democratization
