Democracy Disfigured
ISBN: 9780674725133 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Democracy Disfigured, Nadia Urbinati diagnoses the ills that beset the body politic in an age of hyper-partisanship and media monopolies and offers a spirited defense of the messy compromises and contentious outcomes that define democracy. Urbinati identifies three types of democratic disfiguration: the unpolitical, the populist, and the plebiscitarian. Each undermines a crucial division that a well-functioning democracy must preserve: the wall separating the free forum of public opinion from the governmental institutions that enact the will of the people. Unpolitical... In Democracy Disfigured, Nadia Urbinati diagnoses the ills that beset the body politic in an age of hyper-partisanship and media monopolies ... |

Autorka toto téma uchopuje prostřednictvím rozboru demokratických znetvoření, která nejsou kritikami demokracie samotné, ale spíše nezdařilými teoretickými a praktickými pokusy o její nápravu. Hovoří o třech znetvořeních: epistemickém, populistickém a plebiscitářském; všechna tato znetvoření mají společné to, že deformují procedurální povahu demokracie a tím snižují schopnost občanů ovlivňovat veřejné rozhodování. Publikace je... Tato kniha je příspěvkem k debatě o současné krizi demokracie a možnostech jejího řešení.

Hazelwood Jr. High
ISBN: 9780573697050 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Drama / 6 f At first, Hazelwood Jr. High is like any other middle school - cliques and crushes, dances and detention. But when a new girl unwittingly steps into a "love triangle," a revenge plot is hatched, and events spin out of control, escalating into a shocking and unimaginable climax. Based on a true story. "Mr. Urbinati's script is based on court testimony and psychological and police reports. Even in the era of Jeffrey Dahlmer and Susan Smith, the story holds its own grotesquerie; you can see why Mr. Urbinati was hooked by it. It takes the absolutely ordinary subject of teenage rivalry...

J.S. Mill's Political Thought: A Bicentennial Reassessment
ISBN: 9780521677561 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 402 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. While John Stuart Mill's writing remains a touchstone for debates over liberty and liberalism, many other dimensions of his political philosophy are often ignored. Yet Mill's relevance has only grown since the end of the Cold War, with the resurgence of nationalism, the emergence of new forms of imperial power, and a renewed interest in state-building and the constitution of democracy. This book illustrates the breadth and depth of Mill's political writings. It offers a critical reassessment of Mill's political philosophy in light of recent global development and political transformation.

Tyranny of the Moderns
ISBN: 9780300182774 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The concept of individualism has gone through a fundamental change, according to distinguished political theorist Nadia Urbinati. In the nineteenth century, individualism was a philosophical and ethical perspective that permitted each person to respect and cooperate with others as equals in rights and dignity for the betterment of the community as a whole. Today, the individualist is a more self-interested entity whose maxim might best be expressed as "I don't give a damn." This contemporary form of individualism is possessive and conformist, litigious and docile, all too prone to manipulate...

Representative Democracy: Principles and Genealogy
ISBN: 9780226842790 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. It is usually held that representative government is not strictly democratic, since it does not allow the people themselves to directly make decisions. But here, taking as her guide Thomas Paine s subversive view that Athens, by representation, would have surpassed her own democracy, Nadia Urbinati challenges this accepted wisdom, arguing that political representation deserves to be regarded as a fully legitimate mode of democratic decision making and not just a pragmatic second choice when direct democracy is not possible.
As Urbinati shows, the idea that representation is incompatible... It is usually held that representative government is not strictly democratic, since it does not allow the people themselves to directly make decisions...

The Antiegalitarian Mutation: The Failure of Institutional Politics in Liberal Democracies
ISBN: 9780231169844 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. The twin crises of immigration and mass migration brought new urgency to the balance of power between progressive, humanitarian groups and their populist opponents. In the United States and many European countries, the outcome of this struggle is uncertain, with a high chance that the public will elect more politicians who support an agenda of nativism and privatization. The Antiegalitarian Mutation makes a forceful case that those seeking to limit citizenship and participation, political or otherwise, have co-opted democracy. Political and legal institutions are failing to temper...
