Hier für Interessierte eine Rezension der Forschung des amerikanischen Politikwissenschaftlers Thomas Ferguson, der sich mit dem amerikanischen Demokratie-System befasst:

"Thomas Ferguson has worked for fifteen years to make two claims about democracy in the United States. First, “rule by the people” is a sham, and always has been. Second, the social “sciences” have badly botched the job of finding out why. Golden Rule is a collection of some highlights of this work, and anyone who wants to understand politics in America ought to read it."

Golden Rule.
