Summary:Critically assesses conceptions of democracy in different republican traditionsGBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup(['ISBN:9780748643066','ISBN:9780748677597','ISBN:9780748677610']);This volume directly engages with the relationship and differences between the key strands in contemporary republican political theory. It brings together leading international scholars representing the most important positions in republican political theory today: neorepublicanism, Kantian republicanism, and populist as well as realist republicanism - the first time that these positions actively engage with each other. It expands upon the foundational principle of republicanism - 'freedom as non-domination' - to articulate new theoretical insights into connections between liberty, law and democratic politics, and a radically new conceptualisation of the meaning and structure of democratic institutions and procedures.Key FeaturesTreats historical and theoretical perspectives together to give an alternative to the political and legal theory of contemporary liberalismFor students and researchers in political theory and philosophyContributors include Philip Pettit, John Ferejohn, Rainer Forst, James Bohman, Cécile Laborde, Jack N. Rakove and John P. McCormick
