Public things: democracy in disrepair
Honig, Bonnie
₹ 495.00
In this book, the author asks whether democracy is possible in the absence of public services, spaces, and utilities. In other words, if neoliberalism leaves to democracy merely electoral majoritarianism and procedures of deliberation while divesting democratic states of their ownership of public things, what will the impact be? Following Tocqueville, who extolled the virtues of pursuing in common the objects of common desires, Honig focuses not on the demos but on the objects of democratic life.
