Introduction

Lea Elsässer has succeeded in writing a highly interesting book with a clearly structured line of thought. By asking which social interests actually influence political decisions, she deals with one of the central themes of a democracy that is based on the idea of joint decisions by free and equal people.

The reasons for a systematic comparison of political systems or structures lie primarily in the representation of the unknown and the highlighting of recognized anomalies.

Thesis

Dr. Lea Elsässer was awarded the Wilhelm Liebknecht Prize by the city of Giessen. Lea Elsässer has also gained great recognition far beyond Europe with her numerous scientific contributions in specialist publications and books, and not only in specialist circles, which implicitly also increases her level of fame.

Egalitarian societies, from the Latin aequalitas, refer to a social group, community or society in which all members normally have equal access to all central resources and no member can permanently exercise power over others. The social status of the individual in egalitarian groups depends primarily on his abilities and his will. However, political and/or social equality only exists in theory. It means the agreement of at least two things such as objects, facts or people in at least one characteristic. This equality is a general ideal of justice, the development of which goes back more than two thousand years. Equality gained constitutional significance in 1776 in the Declaration of Independence of the United States. Along with liberty and fraternity, equality was one of the three leitmotifs of the French Revolution of 1789. It is a democratic principle that all people are equal before the law.

Outlook

In the fields of comparative political science, socioeconomics and communication science, her scientific (collaborative) work has set new standards and thus significantly expanded the boundaries of her research area.
