Decline of the founding values of democracy and weakening of quasi-missionary institutions
Tóm tắt
The decline of confidence in the institutions of European democracy constitutes a phenomenon requiring investigation of the factors behind this discontent. Both civic perceptions and the erosion, of fundamental beliefs contribute to hypothesizing about attempts at “constructing meaning.” This leads in turn to a consideration of quasimissionary institutions and to the resultant effects of indifference in the contemporary world.
