The Truth about Patriotism
ISBN: 9780822341109 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "The Truth about Patriotism" is a bracing repudiation of the claim that patriotism is essential--or even beneficial--to democracy. Contending that even at its best patriotism subverts the democracy it purports to value, Steven Johnston turns to patriotism's defenders to show how they must jettison much of democracy to champion patriotism. Closely examined, patriotism itself effectively demonstrates the impossibility of love of country. Patriotism, Johnston argues, tends toward narcissistic self-regard, blind to its violent ways of being in the world and its dependence on death. Thus we would...

American Dionysia: Violence, Tragedy, and Democratic Politics
ISBN: 9781107100602 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 303 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Violence and tragedy riddle democracy - not due to fatal shortcomings or unnecessary failures, but because of its very design and success. To articulate this troubling claim, Steven Johnston explores the cruelty of democratic founding, the brutal use democracies make of citizens and animals during wartime, the ambiguous consequences of legislative action expressive of majority rule, and militant practices of citizenship required to deal with democracy's enemies. Democracy must take responsibility for its success: to rule in denial of violence merely replicates it. Johnston thus calls for the...
