This volume provides a fresh perspective on current democratic
theory and practice by recovering the rich evaluations of democracy
in the history of political thought. Each author addresses a single
thinker's reflections on the virtues and defects of democracy and
the relationship between democracy and other regimes. Together,
these essays explore the tensions within the democratic way of life
that arise from an attachment to equality, liberty, citizenship,
law, and the divine. Above all, this work aims at recovering a more
complex understanding of democracy, connecting the perennial
questions of political philosophy to the perplexities and crises of
modern democracy.
