	May 19 2018 Journal of Democracy* Come with suggestions for our next book.	*The article is a discussion of challenges to a liberal democracy: this is Galston's description of the essay " there is also an internal challenge to liberal democracy—a challenge from populists who seek to drive a wedge between democracy and liberalism. Liberal norms and policies, they claim, weaken democracy and harm the people. Thus, liberal institutions that prevent the people from acting democratically in their own interest should be set aside. It is this challenge on which I wish to focus."
