Good in Theory: A Political Philosophy Podcast

Is democracy the worst form of government except for all the others or is it just the worst?
This is a crossover with the delightful Morality of Everyday Things podcast. Jake and Ant and I discuss what liberal democracy is, the arguments in its favour, and some big critiques. Episode includes Plato, Nazis and Lizards. Enjoy!
