Despotism and Democracy: A Study in Washington Society and Politics is a book written by Molly Elliot Seawell. It is a comprehensive study of the political and social landscape of Washington D.C. during the late 19th century. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the power dynamics and social hierarchy of the city, focusing on the role of the government and the wealthy elite in shaping its culture and politics. Seawell explores the tension between democracy and despotism, arguing that while the ideals of democracy are often championed in Washington, the reality is often closer to despotism, with a small group of powerful individuals wielding disproportionate influence over the political process. The book is a fascinating and insightful look at the inner workings of one of the most important cities in the world, and provides valuable insights into the nature of power and politics in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
