Literary Nonfiction. Politics. Philosophy. In 2008, America elected a serious and apparently transformational figure, President Barack Obama, to the presidency. He promised a new America and a better world. Eight years later, the same country is seriously considering electing a demagogic reality television star to the White House. In THE FRAGILE DEMOCRACY, Christopher Jackson examines the Obama Administration, the 2016 Republican field, the Democratic response, and the future of the Enlightenment itself.
