As one of the most influential ideas in modern European history, democracy has fundamentally reshaped not only the landscape of governance, but also social and political thought throughout the world. Democracy in Modern Europe<\/em> surveys the conceptual history of democracy in modern Europe, from the Industrial Revolutions of the nineteenth century through both world wars and the rise of welfare states to the present era of the European Union. Exploring individual countries as well as regional dynamics, this volume comprises a tightly organized, comprehensive, and thoroughly up-to-date exploration of a foundational issue in European political and intellectual history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Introduction Chapter 1.<\/strong> \u2018Democracy\u2019 from Book to Life: The Emergence of the Term in Active Political Debate, to 1848 Chapter 2.<\/strong> Democracy and the Strange Death of Mixed Government in the Nineteenth Century: Great Britain, France and the Netherlands Chapter 3.<\/strong> Another \u2018Sonderweg\u2019?
