A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

A brilliant book, and indispensable reading for anyone interested in democratic theory. Estlund s careful treatment of the wisdom of crowds and the idea of deliberative democracy stands out as a particularly large advance. One of the very few truly major contributions to democratic theory in the last quarter century. Cass R. Sunstein, University of Chicago --Cass R. Sunstein, University of Chicago

David Estlund's book is original, ambitious, thoughtful, and thought-provoking. It is an important and philosophically nuanced contribution to democratic theory. Christian List, London School of Economics --Christian List, London School of Economics

David Estlund defends democracy for its ability to make good decisions without handing things over to experts. This book is original, imaginative, and filled with subtle and compelling philosophical argument. A wonderful book, and an important one.
