Summary:This title considers the meaning of liberal democratic modernity at a moment when its future has never been less certain. "The Politics to Come" brings together an international collection of thinkers to consider the meaning of liberal democratic modernity at a moment when its future has never been less certain. It examines the explosive threats the liberal order confronts today: financial meltdown, religious extremism, environmental catastrophe.
