On legitimacy and chronic crisis.

Benjamin Studebaker talks to Alex and Lee about his book, Legitimacy in Liberal Democracy – and why the absence of the threat of revolution makes the crisis drag on.

  • What's wrong with 20th century accounts of legitimacy crises? What's changed?

  • Why is contemporary politics so stuck? Is it inescapable?

  • How does the breakdown of consensus make the emergence of a social majority so difficult?

  • Is there no common programme we can agree on, focused on bread-and-butter issues?

  • Do we need to stare despair in the face? Is catastrophe the only way out?
