False Assumptions of Democracy by Anthony Ludovici

The False Assumptions of Democracy was the name given by philosopher Anthony M. Ludovici to two of his major writings: a longer book, first published in 1921, and a series of articles published in the South African Observer from 1956 to 1958. Although they both bore the same name, the contents of each work was completely different. This new edition combines both works into one volume for the first time.

In this book, Ludovici sets out the reasons why democracy, as practised in the current liberal west, is a fraud which deliberately misrepresents itself as “government by the people” when in fact it is a tightly-controlled autocracy in which the masses actually have little say in the day-to-day running of the affairs of state.
