9781789972481: The Contemporary Theory of the Public Sphere

Synopsis

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.
