Civil Society in Liberal Democracy

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the development of a civil society model for deliberative democracy, Jensen presents a nuanced approach that balances idealism with realism. He envisions civil society as a space for citizens to express their comprehensive views while also fostering the skills necessary for effective deliberation. Acknowledging the challenges and barriers to achieving this ideal, Jensen emphasizes the importance of a staged realization and the role of luck in the process, steering clear of naive utopianism.
