### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a powerful primer on how to improve our democratic republic.
*by A***A on June 28, 2022*

Before buying a book I always ask, why am I motivated to read it now? In this case, it’s because Our Great American Experiment is struggling under some serious threats. I’d like to help reduce them. Too many are generated here in America itself. Enter Danielle Allen, with her new book, Democracy in the Time of Coronavirus. In just 104 pages, I got a real education.You can, too, if you seek answers to one or more of the following questions.What is making it so hard to have a constructive conversation about political issues now?What have we lost that threatens Our Great American Experiment?What did we learn from our experience with the Coronavirus pandemic?How could we have approached it to avoid the worst health and economic impacts?Faced with another pandemic, how could we handle it better?Why are the experts we depend on failing to come up with optimum answers?What election system changes would make the most positive difference?If we wanted things to work better, what actions would be essential?What components of a revived social contract between Americans are crucial?If you really care about America and its future, spend some time with Danielle Allen.I even sent a copy to our grandchildren. They deserve better than a broken heritage. Many young Americans no longer believe a democracy is particularly desirable. Our Great American Experiment is losing ground and it needs all the help it can get.Here is some help.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Analysis - Scant Info on Implementing Fixes
*by D***. on July 9, 2022*

Initially, Dr. Allen's book intimidated me. I was unfamiliar with terms such as negative and positive liberties/rights. Her analysis is superb. But it took this old GI awhile to grasp her style of writing. That's my issue; certainly not Dr. Allen's. My only knock is the lack of info on how to implement fixes. This shortcoming is not unique to Dr. Allen's book. It's common to most writings on defending our democracy. That aside, this is an excellent book and well worth the time it takes to read it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the collapse of our social contract
*by L***N on July 1, 2022*

One great merit of Dr. Danielle Allen’s book "Democracy in the Time of Coronavirus" is that it spells out briefly, in clear, concise language what a competent, effective, “integrative” response to the coronavirus pandemic in the United States would have looked like, and why we failed to achieve it.Another great merit is that she shows that this failure of governance was inevitable, and doesn’t follow from any lack of policy expertise (which, her book makes clear, is available in abundance from clear thinking people like herself and her colleagues). It follows, instead, from the collapse of our social contract, and lack of trust in our political system. The pandemic did not produce these problems, but it casts a harsh new light on what lies in store if we don’t address them.A third great merit is that, at 104 pages in the print edition, "Democracy in the Time of Corona Virus" is no longer than it should be. I'm pretty sick of books that are padded to satisfy the bean counters in the publishing industry. Dr. Allen does not waste our time!To sum up: I think it’s clear from Dr. Allen’s conclusions that the point of address must be, not tinkering with policy on the margins, but strengthening our democracy across the board. A rebuilt social contract is inseparable from building the new, inclusive social and political institutions that can create it -- which will, in turn, be empowered and strengthened by the process of creation. There are many ideas about how to do this, but this is where we have to start.
