From Beka Feathers and Ally Shwed comes a much-needed answer to our times-- as humanity grapples with the political landscape of our world, this book shines a bright light on power, justice, and the promise of true democracy."--Back cover.… (mere)

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley.

fernandie | Sep 15, 2022 |

A couple of people stuck in an airport after Thanksgiving use the downtime to think about the pros and cons of various forms of government . . . as Americans are wont to do, you know? They consider monarchies, dictatorships, oligarchies, theocracies, and democracies, defining each form of government and giving examples from world history where something usually went very wrong with it.

It's among the weaker entries in the World Citizen Comics series, but I still found it an engaging review because of my nerdish and wonkish ways when it comes to history and government. I'm not sure the teen audience for whom it seems intended will have my patience with it though. (
