We have summarized here the essential of this book by the author. Both the conservative theories that speak of "ungovernability", as well as the theories of the left, are questioned, and they fail to formulate why there is a crisis. But they agree that "it can no longer continue like this". For the conservatives, excessive modernization with social democracy, in the 40s, 50s and 60s, led to the crisis.
While for Marxism the origin of crises is in the class struggle and in the capitalist economy, for conservatives it is a problem of political democracy. The DIAGNOSIS OF THE CONSERVATIVES says that there is a failure of the State, due to an OVERLOAD OF DEMANDS that come from a society with too many expectations, fed by the participation and pluralism of democracy. THE STATE CANNOT RESPOND efficiently to all demands, and becomes saturated.
The rule of law ties the hands of state power.
