Böcker av Michael A. (Ohio State University) Neblo

Ideal for scholars, graduate, and undergraduate students of democratic theory and political behavior, while engaging for policy makers and concerned citizens. Politics with the People develops and tests a new model of politics - 'directly representative democracy' - connecting citizens and officials to improve representative government.

Many people agree that deliberative democracy is attractive in theory but argue that it is utterly unrealistic as a matter of practice. In this book, Michael A. Neblo develops a novel theory of deliberative democracy and then addresses each of the major practical criticisms of its workability, bridging theory and practice.
