Abstract
A recent book, Contemporary Democratic Theory, is about the decline of democracy. Not an explanation of the phenomenon, but rather a look at how democratic theory has responded. This paper adapts that approach. The context of progressive librarianship (PL) has likewise shifted and consolidated with the results of the 2024 US presidential election and its aftermath. This is not localized or short term, it is global and persistent—and for democracy as well as libraries. The time has come to step back and ask the equivalent questions to that book on democratic theory: what is PL now? How did PL adapt and how might PL adapt? Efforts to document the work of and define PL began in response to “considerable ambiguity about just what constitutes progressive librarianship”—an inquiry conducted over the course of 15 years. It revealed that PL is an umbrella term describing both scholarship and organizational activities, gathering together many labels, if not always comfortably. This paper traces those paths, and based on that history suggests ones for PL to take, and perhaps as important, not to take.
Keywords:
- Democracy,
- neoliberalism,

Résumé
Un livre récent, Contemporary Democratic Theory, traite du déclin de la démocratie. Pas une explication du phénomène, mais plutôt un aperçu de la réaction de la théorie démocratique. Le présent document adapte cette approche. Le contexte de la bibliothéconomie progressiste (BP) a aussi vu des mutations et consolidations avec les résultats de l'élection présidentielle américaine de 2024 et ses conséquences. Il ne s'agit pas d'un phénomène localisé ou à court terme, mais d'un phénomène mondial et persistant, tant pour la démocratie que pour les bibliothèques. Le moment est venu de prendre du recul et de poser les questions équivalentes à ce livre sur la théorie démocratique : qu'est-ce que la BP aujourd'hui ? Comment la BP s'est-elle adaptée et comment la BP pourrait-elle s'adapter ? Les efforts pour définir la BP et documenter son travail ont commencé en réponse à « une ambiguïté considérable sur ce qui constitue exactement la bibliothéconomie progressiste », une enquête menée au cours des 15 dernières années. Elle a révélé que la BP est un terme générique décrivant à la fois la recherche et les activités organisationnelles, rassemblant de nombreuses étiquettes, même si cela n'est pas toujours facile. Cet article retrace ces chemins et, sur la base de cette histoire, suggère ceux que la BP devrait emprunter, et peut-être tout aussi important, ceux qu'elle ne devrait pas emprunter.
