Elites and Democracy

from Pomodoro Breaks · host Panigrahi Nirma

Forget the myth of rule by the people. In this provocative study, Hugo Drochon argues that elites always hold the reins of power. From the boardrooms of global corporations to the halls of government, a small minority always leads. But if democracy is a facade, is it still worth fighting for? Drochon reveals democracy as a perpetual battleground where rising leaders constantly clash with the old guard, keeping the system alive through this dynamic struggle.
