Abstract

Si la démocratie est « le pire système à l’exception de tous les autres », c’est que cet « Autre » doit être un véritable enfer. Or, qu’en est-il vraiment ? La dictature est-elle vraiment l’opposé de la démocratie, ou plutôt son proche cousin ? Alors que les régimes autoritaires se libéralisent, les démocraties s’autocratisent, et les frontières se brouillent, dessinant une zone de convergence et une nouvelle fin de l’histoire, la démocratie illibérale.Aussi confortable intellectuellement que puisse être la distinction entre un « Nous » démocratique et civilisé face à un « Autre » ­autoritaire et barbare, les fondements d’un tel discours ne ­résistent ni à l’examen critique ni à l’épreuve des faits.Au travers de la réfutation de vingt idées reçues sur la dictature ayant cours dans les domaines du droit, des relations inter­nationales ou encore de l’économie, l’auteure nous invite à refuser le discours manichéen dominant pour questionner, en miroir, le ­fonctionnement de nos démocraties libérales.

Abstract

What if the state as we know it didn’t exist? Our air would be poisonous, our votes uncounted, and our markets dysfunctional. Yet across the world, in countries as diverse as Hungary, Israel, the U.K., and the U.S., attacks on the modern state and its workforce are intensifying. They are morphing into power grabs by self-aggrandizing politicians who attempt to seize control of the state for themselves and their cronies. What replaces the modern state once it is fatally undermined is not the free market and the flowering of personal liberty. Instead, the death of government agencies organized under the rule of law inevitably leads to the only realistic alternative: the rule of men.In The Assault on the State, political scientists Stephen Hanson and Jeffrey Kopstein offer an impassioned plea to defend modern government against those who seek to destroy it. They dissect the attack on the machinery of government from its origins in post-Soviet Russia to the core powers of Western democracy. The dangers of state erosion imperil every aspect of our lives. Hanson and Kopstein outline a strategy that can reverse this destructive trend before humanity is plunged back into the pathological personalistic politics of premodern times.
