Reseña del libro "Why Democracy Failed: And Ideas for Something Better (en Inglés)"

As we enter the final phase of our long accidental experiment with representative democracy it is worth understanding why its failure was a consequence of fundamental systemic flaws, so that we can attempt to avoid such obvious pitfalls when at some time in the future the survivors of all the populist-nationalist horrors to come will be looking around for better approaches to self-governance. We live in a global inter-connected world and we are a primate group species with hardwired cognitive biases. These two basic realities clash, and today we are seeing the beginnings of our descent back into discord and strife in consequence of our failure to understand and accept our hardwired limitations. The only way our descendants can hope to escape a similar fate is by building systems of governance that account for the fact we are for the most part irrational, ignorant, and biased. This book looks at why representative democracy began, why it failed, and why we now have the freedom to consider alternative options that may serve us much better. The book then goes on to outline some potential future directions.
