Opis

Radical Civility unearths civility’s extraordinary potential by addressing why the virtue has fallen into crisis, recalling the injunctions that transpose utopia upon the stingy politics of likelihood, and by offering a vision of citizens who find purpose in dignifying each other.

O autorze

Jason Caro is associate professor of political science at the University of Houston-Downtown and has published in venues ranging from Political Theory and Political Studies to Philosophy and Social Criticism and the Continental Philosophy Review.
