Abstract

When the idea of democracy first appeared and applied in the ancient Greece, many political thinkers have begun to discuss critically about its nature and justification. It seemed as a successful form of government in the 20th century, but due to globalization, modern societies have undergone a profound change and transformation and democracy experienced many setbacks in the 21st century. Even in well-established democracies political perception and social values changed. Global financial and political crisis that democracy faced, led to a weakness of the ideals of democracy and political alienation. As a result, today, theoretical discussions such as democracy without democracy, democracy without politics or post-democracy emerge to point the sign of the malaise of democracy. Against this background, this paper tries to illuminate, building on the work of Ingolfur Blühdorn?s ?Simulative Democracy? the future of democracy and the triggers for the crisis of democracy.
