TY - GEN T1 - The real world of democratic theory A2 - Shapiro, Ian LA - English PP - Princeton PB - Princeton University Press YR - 2011 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocn705945722 AB - In this book Ian Shapiro develops and extends arguments that have established him as one of today's leading democratic theorists. Shapiro is hardheaded about the realities of politics and power, and the difficulties of fighting injustice and oppression. Yet he makes a compelling case that democracy's legitimacy depends on pressing it into the service of resisting domination, and that democratic theorists must rise to the occasion of fashioning the necessary tools. That vital agenda motivates the arguments of this book.
