Instead of an epitaph for democracy, they offer a guide for democratic renewal, calling on citizens to recommit to a "civic bargain" with one another to guarantee civic rights of freedom, equality, and dignity.

Entertaining and shocking, these ancient anti-role models show how power inflames leaders' worst tendencies.

It also shows how he works today. He convinced us to look for ...
