Recenzje

`It is a sign of how vulnerable intellectual life is to fashion, that English pluralism is no longer widely read and studied today. The work of Cole, Laski and Figgis is of the utmost significance, and scarcely known to student and contemporary scholars in democratic theory today. This timely book represents the lost tradition of English pluralism in a manner which not only makes it clearly available, but a decisive challenge to democratic thought. An essential text.' - David Held
