David Held is Graham Wallas Professor of Political Science at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
"In this timely and thought-provoking study, Held provides a
critical reassessment of major theories of democracy from ancient
Greece to the present, along with his own prescription for
revitalizing contemporary democratic politics. . . . This volume
should be read and pondered by anyone interested in the future of
democracy."

theories of democracy from classical antiquity to the present
day."
