| Zusammenfassung: | In this book, Stephen K. White contends that Western democracies face novel challenges demanding our reexamination of the role of citizens. White offers an incisive interpretation of our late-modern ethical-political condition and explains how a distinctive "ethos," or spirit, of citizenship might constitute part of an exemplary response. This ethos requires reworking basic figures of the modern political imagination, including our conception of the self, citizenship, and democratic politics. White argues that the intense focus in the past three decades on finding general principles of justice for diversity-rich societies needs to be complemented by an exploration of what sort of ethos would be needed to adequately sustain any such principles. He proposes that Western citizens adopt an ethos that is defined by such virtues as (moral) attentiveness, self-restraint, and existential gratitude. |

This ethos requires reworking basic figures of the modern political imagination, including our conception of the self, citizenship, and democratic politics. White argues that the intense focus in the past three decades on finding general principles of justice for diversity-rich societies needs to be complemented by an exploration of what sort of ethos would be needed to adequately sustain any such principles. He proposes that Western citizens adopt an ethos that is defined by such virtues as (moral) attentiveness, self-restraint, and existential gratitude.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">In English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Citizenship.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026205</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Freedom & Security</subfield><subfield code="x">Civil Rights.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">POLITICAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">Political Freedom & Security</subfield><subfield code="x">Human Rights.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">SOCIAL SCIENCE</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Citizenship</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Staatsbürger</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4182642-5</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Ethos</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4127351-5</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Politisches Denken</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4115590-7</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Pluralistische Gesellschaft</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4137185-9</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">White, Stephen K.</subfield><subfield code="t">Ethos of a late-modern citizen.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, 2009</subfield><subfield code="z">9780674032637</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2008041568</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)261175271</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=328909</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">3350052</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBSCOhost</subfield><subfield code="b">EBSC</subfield><subfield code="n">328909</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ebrary</subfield><subfield code="b">EBRY</subfield><subfield code="n">ebr10399449</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL - Ebook Library</subfield><subfield code="b">EBLB</subfield><subfield code="n">EBL3300784</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">De Gruyter</subfield><subfield code="b">DEGR</subfield><subfield code="n">9780674054813</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Askews and Holts Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">ASKH</subfield><subfield code="n">AH39541889</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Internet Archive</subfield><subfield code="b">INAR</subfield><subfield code="n">ethosoflatemoder0000whit</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="994" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">92</subfield><subfield code="b">GEBAY</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="049" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">DE-863</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Cambridge, Massachusetts : Harvard University Press, 2009. ©2009 1 online resource (xii, 135 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier text file PDF rda Includes bibliographical references (pages 113-131) and index. Introduction -- Reason and ethos -- After critique: affirming subjectivity -- Animating the reach of our moral imagination -- Democracy's predicament -- Conclusion. In this book, Stephen K. White contends that Western democracies face novel challenges demanding our reexamination of the role of citizens. White offers an incisive interpretation of our late-modern ethical-political condition and explains how a distinctive "ethos," or spirit, of citizenship might constitute part of an exemplary response. This ethos requires reworking basic figures of the modern political imagination, including our conception of the self, citizenship, and democratic politics. White argues that the intense focus in the past three decades on finding general principles of justice for diversity-rich societies needs to be complemented by an exploration of what sort of ethos would be needed to adequately sustain any such principles. He proposes that Western citizens adopt an ethos that is defined by such virtues as (moral) attentiveness, self-restraint, and existential gratitude. In English. Print version record.
