Democracy for the few

[ComradeAV]

Is democracy for the few by micheal parenti a good read? Also will it most likely be available at the local library or bookstore?

[Chimurenga.]

It seems like an excellent read. I'm not sure about your local library or bookstore. I've never seen anything by Parenti on sale in a bookstore before. I would honestly check for a used copy online that isn't too outdated but the latest editions are ridiculously priced and you can probably find the same content for a lot cheaper.

The reason Democracy for the Few is so expensive in its latest edition is that it's used as a textbook and priced accordingly. Earlier editions are much cheaper.

Yeah it's like in its 8th or 9th edition. It's a very good and wise book. A lot of bad news therein though.
Another excellent one I like is Blackshirts and Reds.
