A first year student who believes passionately in direct-democracy has to uncover the dark truth about her seemingly perfect world in order to save New Britain from a power-hungry leader.***Athena wants to get through her first year at the New London University of Politics maintaining a reasonable influence level and taking part in as many votes as possible. Her world runs on voting: from the colour of clothing, to the price of food, everything is determined by the people. What Athena doesn't want is to be asked to spy on a group who believe voters have less choice than they realise. Nor does she expect enigmatic Dyo to get under her skin, causing her to wonder if her society is less perfect than it seems. But Dyo is keeping secrets too, and Athena struggles to work out who to trust and what she should do next. Her society may be broken, but it isn't unfixable - yet. From student to spy, traitor to revolutionary, Athena must work out who she wants to be, and which side she should be fighting for, before New London's citizens have their democracy destroyed forever.…

Athens was a city in Greece controlled by aristocrats that became a unified polis in 700 B.C.E. Athens was pretty much down the toilet in terms of political turmoil. People owed money left and right, others had hardly any land. Athens practically had war. Solon, provided needs for Athens however, failed to provide land for the poor, and also ended up bringing aristocrats out of power, which inevitably started the tyranny in Athens. Pisistratus became a tyrant soon after and gave the people what they wanted, but that too didn't last long after his son was rebelled against. Then came Cleisthenes who provided a new political power of sorts, and started the beginning of Athenian democracy. Little by little he took power away from aristocrats for good and gave power to the people, with limitations of course.…

Democratic erosion is defined as a decline in democratic quality manifested by a statistically significant decline in at least one aspect of democracy. Democratic backsliding, defined as the sustained and deliberate subversion of basic democratic tenets by political actors and governments, is on the verge of becoming a new type of pandemic. In the largest and wealthiest non-Western countries, there is an increasing incidence of - democratic breakdowns, democratic backsliding or stagnation and poor performance of new democracies according to various measures of good governance and rule of law. The absolute number of democracies has been decreasing since 2015. The number of democratically regressive countries has never been greater than in the last decade. In fact, 70% of the world's population now lives in either non-democratic regimes or democratically regressive countries. Only 9 % of the world's population lives in high-performing democracies.…
