How to Save Democracy: Advice and Inspiration from 95 World Leaders (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798987295229)

How to Save Democracy is a collection of 423 instructive quotations derived from the First International Summit for Democracy. Divided into three sections-Virtues of Democracy, Challenges & Threats, and The Way Forward-the books brings hope, optimism, and poetry to the fight. As vital, How to Save Democracy outlines seven key principles of democratic success:

1. Never take democracy for granted
2. Democracy is the peoples' government
3. Free and fair elections are the bedrock of democracy
4. Equality, inclusion, and diversity are cornerstones of democracy
5. Free, independent, ethical media is a lifeline of democracy
6. Rule of law is the glue that holds democracies together
7. Citizens, and nations, must unite to defend democracy

How to Save Democracy (Amplify Publishing, 2023) is a collaboration between Eli Merritt and RepresentUs, one of the nation's premier nonprofit organizations fighting corruption and strengthening democracy.
