Description
Common Ground: Democracy and Collectivity in an Age of Individualism by Jeremy Gilbert is a compelling exploration of the tension between individualism and collective social life in contemporary democracies. Gilbert argues that modern capitalist societies have increasingly emphasized individual autonomy and personal success at the expense of collective bonds and shared political agency. This hyper-individualism, he suggests, has undermined the foundations of democratic culture and social solidarity. The book examines how neoliberalism has reshaped institutions, economies, and social relationships, encouraging competition over cooperation and personal responsibility over collective welfare. Gilbert critically engages with political theory, sociology, and cultural studies to explore how this shift has led to a weakening of democracy, as citizens become disconnected from collective action and public life. However, Common Ground is not purely pessimistic. Gilbert offers a vision for reclaiming collective power through new forms of democratic participation, solidarity, and common ownership. He highlights emerging social movements and collective practices that challenge individualism and seek to rebuild a sense of "common ground" in society. This thought-provoking book is essential for anyone interested in contemporary political theory, democratic renewal, and the future of collective life in an increasingly individualistic world.
