Discourse and Democracy: Critical Analysis of the Language of Government
4
 
 
Discourse and Democracy: Critical Analysis of the Language of GovernmentIn this new study, Farrelly gives a critical examination of democracy as it is conceived and practiced in contemporary advanced liberal nations. The received wisdom on democracy is probelmatized through a close analysis of discourse in combination with critical theories of democracy and of the State. The central theme of the book is the paradox of pervasive reference to democracy as a legitimation of political action by liberal governments versus the converse weakening of actual democratic practice within the liberal world.
