The democracy of the United States has been challenged by the country’s very leader in recent weeks. But the form of government has value and has proven to be superior to others countless times throughout history. It is not, however, without its flaws and is not above some philosophers' critique. Discussed in this episode: The origin of democratic institutions, factors leading to the spread of democracy in the 20th century, problems and challenges in a democracy, and philosophical arguments for and against democratic governments.
