Classical and contemporary republicans offer a compelling political
vision built on a commitment to promoting freedom from domination,
establishing popular control over public officials, and securing
the empire of law. The Well-Ordered Republic provides the most
rigorous, comprehensive, and up-to-date account of republican
political theory presently available, while also showing how that
theory can be extended to address new issues of economic justice,
workplace democracy, identity politics, emergency powers,
education, migration, and foreign policy. Frank Lovett argues that
our shared freedom from domination is constituted by republican
institutions such as democracy, the rule of law, and the public
provision of an unconditional basic income. As a public good whose
continued supply depends on robust civic engagement, republican
freedom is a valuable but ongoing collective achievement: all
citizens must remain dedicated to shared republican institutions
for their freedom to endure. Oxford Political Theory presents the
best new work in contemporary political theory. It is intended to
be broad in scope, including original contributions to political
philosophy, and also work in applied political theory. The series
will contain works of outstanding quality with no restriction as to
approach or subject matter. Series Editors: Will Kymlicka and David
Miller.
