Examining both ancient and early modern conceptions of civic republicanism, the contributors respond to the work of thinkers ranging from Plato and Aristotle to Machiavelli, Montesquieu, and Wollstonecraft. A testament to the continuing influence of the concept and the ongoing scholarly debate which surrounds it, On Civic Republicanism addresses fundamental questions regarding democratic participation, liberal democracy, and the public good. Its essays speak to the many ways in which the idea of the republic still challenges us today.RepublicanismHistoryPolitical ethicsHistoryPolitical ScienceAristotleAthensDavid HumeDemocracyJean-Jacques RousseauMontesquieuNiccolò MachiavelliRepublicanismRepublicanismHistory.Political ethicsHistory.321.8/6Kellow Geoffreyauth1364626Leddy NevenKellow GeoffreyUkMaJRUUkMaJRU9910136397903321On civic republicanism3386065UNINA
