What is the ethical basis of democracy? And what reasons do we have to go aLong with
democratic decisions even when we disagree with them? And when do we have reason to
say that we may justly ignore democratic decisions? These questions must be answered
if we are to have answers to some of the most important questions facing our global
community, which include whether there is a human right to democracy and whether
we must attempt to spread democracy throughout the globe.
This book provides a philosophical account of the moral foundations of democracy
and of Liberalism. It shows how democracy and basic liberal rights are grounded in the
principle of public equality, which telLs us that in the establishment of law and policy
we must treat persons as equals in ways they can see are treating them as equals. The
principle of public equaLity is shown to be the fundamental principle of social justice.

understand the nature and roles of adversarial politics and
public deliberation in political life. It gives an account of the grounds of the authority
of democracy. It also shows when the authority of democracy runs out. The author shows
how the violations of democratic and liberal rights are beyond the Legitimate authority
of democracy, how the creation of persistent minorities in a democratic society,
and the failure to ensure a basic minimum for all persons weaken the legitimate
authority of democracy. |
