Description:This book focuses on Andrew Aratos democratic theory and its relevance to contemporary issues such as processes of democratization, civil society, constitution-making, and the modern Executive.Andrew Arato is -both globally and disciplinarily- a prominent thinker in the fields of democratic theory, constitutional law, and comparative politics, influencing several generations of scholars. This is the first volume to systematically address his democratic theory. Including contributions from leading scholars such as Dick Howard, Ulrich Preuss, Hubertus Buchstein, Janos Kis, Uri Ram, Leonardo Avritzer, Carlos de la Torre, and Nicolas Lynch, this book is organized around three major areas of Aratos influence on contemporary political and social thought. The first section offers a comprehensive view of Aratos scholarship from his early work on critical theory and Western Marxism to his current research on constitution-making and its application. The second section shifts its focus from the previous, comprehensive approach, to a much more specific one: Aratos widespread influence on the study of civil society in democratization processes in Latin America. The third section includes a previously unpublished work, A conceptual history of dictatorship (and its rivals, ) one of the few systematic interrogations on the meaning of a political form of fundamental relevance in the contemporary world. "Critical Theory and Democracy" will be of interest to critical and social theorists, and all Arato scholars."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
