Violence and Democracy

Meer over het boek

Exploring the origins and implications of violence, John Keane challenges the notion that violence is inherent to human nature. He highlights how democracies tend to avoid waging war against one another and are more attuned to issues of violence. The book addresses ethical dilemmas surrounding the justification of violence and advocates for making violence more accountable and transparent within democratic societies. Keane's analysis offers a unique perspective on the interplay between violence and democracy, seeking remedies and understanding for these complex relationships.
