Yet, far from being an uncontentious domain for shared interests and common values, the family is often the scene of intense interpersonal conflict and disagreement. In All in the Family, the political theorist Kennan Ferguson reconsiders the family, in its varied forms, as an exemplar of democratic politics and suggests how real rather than idealized family dynamics can help us to better understand and navigate political conflict. By closely observing the attachments that arise in families despite profound disagreements and incommensurabilities, Ferguson argues, we can imagine a political engagement that accommodates radical differences without sacrificing community.Political Science / History & TheorybisacshPolitical sciencePolitical Science / History & TheoryPolitical scienceFerguson Kennan1452222ScCtBLLScCtBLLBOOK9910765751503321All in the Family3653487UNINA
