Les progressistes ont fait trop de concessions à l’élite du pouvoir. Ils ont succombé à l’opportunisme puis à la peur en entraînant avec eux leurs institutions. Ils ont renoncé à leur fonction morale. Ils n’ont pas dénoncé les abus des milieux d’affaires quand ils en avaient l’occasion, et ont banni de leurs rangs ceux qui osaient le faire. [...] L’une après l’autre, ces institutions ont succombé à l’appât du gain, aux harangues patriotiques, à l’idéologie de la guerre permanente, à la peur des ennemis de l’intérieur comme de l’extérieur et à la méfiance à l’égard des militants de gauche, à qui l’élite progressiste devait jadis son honnêteté. » De plus en plus puissant, l’État-entreprise n’a même plus à répondre à ses détracteurs progressistes. Les médias, les syndicats, les universités, les artistes et le Parti démocrate se sont tous inclinés devant la grande entreprise et, bardés de leur prétendue neutralité, défendent désormais les intérêts de celle-ci dans une consternante pantomime de démocratie. L’élite progressiste américaine, détachée du monde, dépourvue de toute crédibilité, a déserté la tribune politique, cédant la place au populisme d’extrême droite. À la fois récit du naufrage volontaire du contre-pouvoir, depuis la Première Guerre mondiale jusqu’à l’invasion de l’Irak, et constat d’un alarmant vide idéologique, ce livre salue aussi les révoltés, libres parias, qui persistent à épuiser le champ du possible.

Belgium set a new world record in 2011 for the time needed to form a government, taking no less than 541 days to bring together a new federal coalition. Governing a divided society like Belgium is never easy, demanding appropriate institutions and advanced political skills. In this fully revised and updated text, Kris Deschouwer gives an even-handed and analytically sophisticated account of contemporary Belgium politics. He explains the background to the territorial divide between a Dutch-speaking north and a French-speaking south that has shaped the political system and has led Belgium's polarized communities to contemplate divorce after decades of search for institutional responses to internal conflict. Deschouwer sets out the institutional arrangements of what has been called the most thorough example of a consociational democracy, and shows how this form of democratic government, along with Belgium's particular federal system has provided a basis – most of the time – to govern a deeply divided country. Fully updated to cover the latest developments, including the 2011 agreement on new constitutional reform, this leading text provides a comprehensive picture of Belgian politics which helps answer the question of whether Belgium – and indeed other divided societies – can be governed in a legitimate democratic manner.
