The Real World of Democracy

In his 1964 CBC Massey Lectures C. B. Macpherson examines the rival ideas of democracy — the communist, Third World, and Western-liberal variants — and their impact on one another. He suggests that the West need not fear any challenge to liberal democracy if it is prepared to re-examine and alter its own values.
