Sommario/riassunto

This book, authored by Bernard Reber, explores the intricacies of democratic deliberation, focusing on the conditions necessary for effective democratic debate. It delves into the critique and evolution of deliberative democracy, examining both theoretical and empirical perspectives. The work considers the philosophical foundations laid by thinkers like Rawls and Habermas, addressing their differing views on political discourse and argumentation. Reber aims to bridge theoretical disputes with practical applications, highlighting the challenges of pluralism, reflective equilibrium, and the burdens of judgment in democratic settings. The book is intended for scholars and students of political science, philosophy, and public policy, offering insights into the complexities of democratic communication and decision-making.
