Abstract
In Democracy May Not Exist, But We’ll Miss it When It’s Gone (2019), Astra Taylor foregrounds the need for people to constantly reason and reflect on ‘the great Socratic question “How should I live?”’ with the objective to mold and modify democracy’s form. Once an ideal collective task in which everyone was welcome to join and participate, democracy has now become an exclusive undertaking and distant horizon as more and more people become disenfranchised and are denied the ability to disrupt and disagree with the current state of things.
