William E. Connolly's writings have pushed the leading edge of
political theory, first in North America and then in Europe as
well, for more than two decades now. This book draws on his
numerous influential books and articles to provide a coherent and
comprehensive overview of his significant contribution to the field
of political theory.
The book focuses in particular on three key areas of his
thinking:
- Democracy: his work in democratic theory - through his critical
challenges to the traditions of Rawlsian theories of justice and
Habermasian theories of deliberative democracy - has spurred the
creation of a fertile and powerful new literature
- Pluralism - Connolly's work utterly transformed the terrain of
the field by helping to resignify pluralism: from a conservative
theory of order based on the status quo into a radical theory of
democratic contestation based on a progressive political
vision
- The Terms of Political Theory - Connolly has changed the
language in which Anglo-American political theory is spoken, and
entirely shuffled the pack with which political theorists
work.
