The concept of the public sphere has long been limited by its division into the twin approaches of normative argumentation in democratic theory and empirical-theoretical application in the social sciences. This book goes beyond this divide, showing how democratic theory can become empirically applicable and the social sciences normatively relevant.

Patrick O'Mahony is Senior Lecturer in Sociology in the School of Sociology, Philosophy, Criminology, Government and Politics at University College, Cork. His published work addresses interrelated theoretical, methodological, and empirical issues in public sphere research in the social sciences, as well as issues in philosophy, mass communication studies, cultural studies, political science, and political theory. On these foundations, he writes on social theory, nationalism, environmental politics, and science and technology. He is presently working on a theory of communicative reason and democracy within a cognitive sociological and wider interdisciplinary framework.

Paperback. Etat : New. Normative democratic theory does not lie securely above societal argumentation but is rather part of it. We need to know not just how the public should ideally reason, but how it actually does or could in better foreseeable circumstances. For the health and the necessary extension of democracy, given general societal and cosmopolitan challenges, fundamentally depends on the reasoning capacities of publics. The concept of the public sphere is intrinsic to understanding this process, but it has long been limited by its division into the twin approaches of normative argumentation in democratic theory and empirical-theoretical application in the social sciences. This book aims to go beyond this entrenched divide to show how democratic theory can become empirically applicable and the social sciences normatively relevant. It does this by linking democratic theory to the theory of society and relating both to a cognitive-communicative account of public culture. The book contributes significantly to exchanges within and between sociology, philosophy, cultural and communication studies, political science, and cognate disciplines. It also addresses a long-established concern of critical theory to combine empirical and normative perspectives to advance the goal of a better society. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781789972481
