Isbn: 9781541673021 - two cheers for politics: why democracy is flawed, frightening―and our best hope (12 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. One of the country's most astute legal scholars explains how American political culture disempowers ordinary citizens and makes the case for a reinvigorated democracy    Americans across the political spectrum agree that our democracy is in crisis. We view our political opponents with disdain, if not terror, and an increasing number of us are willing to consider authoritarian alternatives. In Two Cheers for Politics, Jedediah Purdy argues that this heated political culture is a symptom not of too much democracy but too little. Today, the decisions that most affect our lives and our communities are often made outside the political realm entirely, as market ideology, constitutional law, and cultural norms effectively remove broad swaths of collective life from the table of collective decision. The result is a weakened and ineffective political system and an increasingly unequal and polarized society. If we wish to renew that society, we'll need to claw back the ground that we've ceded to anti-politics and entrust one another with the power to shape our common life.&nbsp.…
