The Endgame Election?: European Views on the United States Elections of 2024: Routledge Research in American Politics and Governance

Editat de Maciej Turek, Philipp Adorf
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 sep 2026
The Endgame Election? European Views on the United States Elections of 2024 examines whether the 2024 U.S. presidential election marks a decisive turning point in American democracy by analyzing the contest and its broader political context from the perspective of European scholars.
Bringing together European scholars of American politics, this volume examines how Donald Trump’s return to power unfolded against the backdrop of democratic backsliding, institutional fragility, and shifting electoral coalitions. It analyzes the internal transformations of the Democratic and Republican parties, the extraordinary replacement of Joe Biden by Kamala Harris, the role of media ecosystems and misinformation, the dynamics of voter suppression and the Electoral College, and the growing openness to executive aggrandizement within parts of the Republican Party. The book situates the 2024 election within broader debates about constitutional accountability, partisan polarization, and the erosion of democratic guardrails, asking whether the election narrowed the avenues of democratic self-correction that once defined the American system. The European vantage point offers analytical distance and comparative insight into patterns of democratic erosion familiar from other contexts.
This volume will be essential reading for scholars, students, and researchers of American politics, comparative politics, and democratic governance, as well as for policymakers and informed readers seeking to understand the implications of the 2024 election for the future of U.S. democracy.

Recenzii

The Endgame Election examines the 2024 U.S. election from the perspective of qualified European scholars who analyse the campaign, presidency, congress, courts, political parties, media, and voters while exploring the possible demise of traditional American democracy and its impact on the international system. The book covers a topic of vital importance and presents its evidence and conclusions in an accessible style that will engage readers and challenge them to think about the implications of Donald Trump’s re-election.
Aubrey Jewett, Associate Director and Associate Professor, University of Central Florida
This book provides a unique European perspective on the 2024 American presidential election, and how it may signal the end of over 200 years of American democracy. Taking a broad perspective on the election, each chapter examines evidence that the United States has entered a period of democratic decline, and potentially a transition to a new authoritarian style of government.
David J. Andersen, Associate Professor of United States Politics, Durham University
