The protracted economic crisis since 2008, terrorist attacks, and mass immigration have been changing our democracies during the first decades of this century. The crucial questions which emerge are how and why these phenomena had an impact on the effective implementation of the two critical democratic values, freedom and equality, as well as the impact of the European Union. The book analyses France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and the United Kingdom in the 1990-2020 period, and reveals a pattern of relative decline in these values. The book explores the demand for equalities and freedoms by citizens and the political commitments of party leaders, as well as how and why equalities and freedoms are affected by domestic aspects, and the role of external factors. In doing so, Equality, Freedom and Democracy demonstrates three different paths for the future of democracy; balanced democracy, protest democracy, and unaccountable democracy. Book jacket.
