Conciliatory Democracy

En savoir plus sur le livre

Persistent political disagreement is examined as both a moral and epistemic challenge, suggesting that opposing views may hold equal competency. Ebeling critiques the narrow focus of deliberative democracy advocates and encourages a broader approach inspired by Rousseau, who valued disagreement as a means to foster conciliation. By integrating insights from public choice theory and empirical research, the book emphasizes the essential role of political parties in enhancing democratic processes and promoting constructive dialogue among citizens.
