About the Author
Jean L. Cohen is Associate Professor of Political Theory at Columbia University.
Review
Cohen and Arato provide a wonderfully illuminating and detailed account of the civil society argument as it has developed in Europe. And then they turn that argument into a critical theory of American society or, more generally, of liberal democracy―pointing the way toward a more effectively and pervasively democratic liberalism.
