What Is Democracy? is a book written by Liberty Hyde Bailey in 1918 that explores the concept of democracy and its role in society. The book is divided into three parts: the first part provides a historical overview of democracy, tracing its origins from ancient Greece to the present day. The second part delves into the philosophical underpinnings of democracy, examining the principles of equality, freedom, and justice that underlie democratic societies. The final part of the book explores the practical aspects of democracy, including the mechanics of elections, the role of political parties, and the importance of civic engagement. Throughout the book, Bailey argues that democracy is not just a political system, but a way of life that requires active participation from all members of society. He also emphasizes the importance of education in fostering democratic values and creating a more just and equitable society. Overall, What Is Democracy? is a thought-provoking exploration of one of the most important and enduring concepts in modern politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
