Global Democracy: The Struggle for Political and Civil Rights in the 21st Century

by Didier Jacobs
Vanderbilt University Press
October 2007

Didier Jacobs discussed his recently published book Global Democracy: The Struggle for Political and Civil Rights in the 21^st Century. Mr. Jacobs explained that he had attempted to reframe the concept of global democracy and world government in the context of civil rights because it would make it more convincing to students of contemporary world affairs. In the first part of his book, Mr. Jacobs considers the meaning of ideas such as government, democracy, federalism, and sovereignty, leading to a conceptualization of how world democracy under common government and political structures could be achieved in the second part of his book. Mr. Jacobs emphasizes that a world government already exists in our international structure; the task ahead is how to make this government democratic, and his book presents a framework to achieve this task.
