- Summary:
- This volume defends a radical view: the word 'democracy' means nothing and should be abandoned. According to the abolitionist, the switch to alternative devices would be a significant communicative, cognitive, and political advance, enabling us to ask better questions, provide genuinely fruitful answers, and have more rational discussions.
