Humorously illustrated by Plantu, the famous cartoonist of the French newspaper Le Monde, this book is a valuable tool for all those who want to know more about democracy and human rights, whether it be students, activists, civil servants, or simply as interested citizens. What is democracy? What is the relation between democracy and individual rights? Is majority rule always democratic? How can democracy be maintained and improved? This book tackles these and other questions about democracy, covering six broad areas: basic concepts and principles; free and fair elections; open and accountable government; individual rights and their defence; democratic or civil society; the future of democracy.
