Böcker av James E. Fleming

Fleming and McClain defend a civic liberalism that takes seriously not just rights but responsibilities and virtues. Issues taken up include same-sex marriage, reproductive freedom, regulation of civil society and the family, education of children, and clashes between First Amendment freedoms of association and religion and antidiscrimination law.

Argues that the right to privacy or autonomy should be grounded in a theory of securing constitutional democracy. This work seeks to secure the basic liberties that are preconditions for deliberative democracy - to allow citizens to deliberate about the institutions and policies of their government.
