| 520 | _a"Notes on Democracy" by H. L. Mencken is a political critique published in 1926. The book dissects democracy's failures, dividing political leaders into two types: demagogues who deceive idiots with lies, and demaslaves who pretend to believe those same idiots. Mencken portrays politicians as men who've traded honor for power. This fierce polemic attacks the democratic tradition through ridicule, though critics note Mencken's contrast between sordid reality and his imagined ideal society reveals the work's central weakness.
