- catalog abstract ""The essays gathered in this volume cover a wide range of theoretical and practical issues concerning a variety of problems which democracies confront time and again. Their aim is to look at challenges to democracy that evolve from within democracy. It sets out to examine how democracies, in different times, dealt with attempts to undermine democratic processes and fundamental human rights. The design of this book is both interdisciplinary and comparative, offering historical, philosophical, legal, sociological, political and media perspectives of renowned scholars from the United Kingdom Israel, the United States and Canada, They analyse how different societies try to cope with and find answers for attacks against them by political extremists, cultural chauvinists, terrorists, hate groups and other radical movements. The essays provide a fresh and comprehensive analysis that undoubtedly enriches the literature on this intricate issue of how democracies should deal with illiberal challenges."--Jacket.".
