Abstract
The Crisis of Liberal Democracy and the Nationalist Counter-Project. The Problem of the Relationality between an Individual, the Society and the Authority
Highlights
The provenance of the thesis claiming that liberal democracy is in crisis may have two sources
The aim of this article is to analyze the connections between an individual, the society and the state, that is the scopes of the title relationship determining obligatory aspects and the content of obligations corresponding to the requirements of the efficiency of liberal democracy and the content of obligations necessary to maintain the coherence of the nationalist counterproject, as well as specific costs necessary to achieve the efficiency of each of these systems
The essence of liberal democracy lies in the combination of the idea of equality and freedom, which consists in the statement that the requirement for freedom is equality in law
Summary
The provenance of the thesis claiming that liberal democracy is in crisis may have two sources. This diagnosis may stem from the concern about liberal democracy, acknowledged, for a reason, to be the best system invented by people (in spite of its various deficits), in which individuals are given significant space of freedom while they are subjected to some slight, not oppressive and generally predictable scope of constraint (compared to other social inventions in which people experienced or are still experiencing oppression in a greater and considerably less predictable scope). We have a categorical demand that we reject liberal democracy and the consecutive demand that it be replaced with another project.
