abstract:
The fundamental problem with democracy, according to philosopher Eric Weil, lies in the fact that it is not only a government system established and controlled by the people, but also a government system in charge of educating people towards the safeguarding of democracy. Man does not inevitably relinquish the use of violence, he is not reasonable by nature – but he can and must become reasonable.
