This meeting marked the first in the Society's modern history not linked to an annual conference of one of the three contributing disciplines--philosophy, political science, and law--and took place at the new institutional home for ASPLP, Boston University School of Law, on September 28, 2018. Our topic, "Democratic Failure," was selected by the Society's membership."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Explores the challenges facing democracies in the twenty-first century</b> <p/>In <i>Democratic Failure</i>, Melissa Schwartzberg and Daniel Viehoff bring together a distinguished group of interdisciplinary scholars in political science, law, and philosophy to explore the key questions and challenges facing democracies, both in the past and present, around the world. <p/>In ten timely essays, contributors examine the fascinating, centuries-old question of whether or not democracy can ever fulfill the promise of its ideals.
