The Terms of Political Discourse by William Connolly
Power. Interest. Freedom. Responsibility. Connolly explores and confronts sets of interrelated concepts such as these - concepts whose meanings are persistently subject to debate in the context of political discourse. He illuminates the role played in political life and political enquiry by such conceptual contests. And in staking out his own position in these contests, he seeks both to politicize broad areas of social life and to weave norms of responsibility more thoroughly into politics.
"Considered as a general introduction to contemporary political theory, social philosophy and the broader questions in political science, it can hardly be equalledIt is admirably lucid and concise in expression, and scholarly, original and profound in argument." J. N. Gray, Jesus College, Oxford
William E. Connolly is Professor of Political Science at the Johns Hopkins University, and is the author of Identity/Difference: Democratic Negotiations of Political Paradox.
