Radicalizing Democracy for the Twenty-first century (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

While the subject of democracy has been explored by philosophers since ancient times, in the last few decades democracy has been taken for granted in the West as the political norm. The issue of democracy as an empty concept in western political discourse and the emergence of radical democracy has renewed engagement in democratic theory and politics. Radicalizing Democracy for the Twenty-first Century explores the radicalizing movement in democratic thought and is an important resource for students, scholars and university teachers in the field of political philosophy, political theory and international relations.
