Críticas

"These are fine essays on democratic theory by top people and they represent the cutting edge of recent scholarship on the subject. Indeed, I know of no collection on democracy of comparable quality and I expect to see this collection become a standard work in the field that influences further research on liberal democratic theory." Gregory Kavka

Can it successfully guide a socialist society?
