Rezensionen

This book provides an important understanding of the place and value of a civil society in securing the development in some cases, and the maintenance in other cases, of liberal democracy. And thus it represents a way to advance liberal democracy in spite of the authoritarian tendencies now afoot that threaten it.

Steven M. DeLue, Professor Emeritus Political Science, Miami University

Pietrzak's study of civil society is sophisticated and nuanced, analysing it as a philosophical proposition with many challenges and "transgressions." Approaching civil society as one of the most important political questions of our time, the discussion in this book is both historically focused and urgently timely.

Tim Dale, Professor of Political Science and Public Administration, University of Wisconsin La Crosse
