Must Politics Be War?

Restoring Our Trust in the Open Society

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

American politics seems like a war between irreconcilable forces and so we may suspect that political life as such is war. This book confronts these suspicions by arguing that liberal political institutions have the unique capacity to sustain social trust in diverse, open societies, undermining aggressive political partisanship.
