I recall my student days in Harvard Square, when we heard more than I'd like to count "Democracy is the worst of all current political systems EXCEPT for all the others!" So, with that in mind, what are the presumed "duties" of oppressed masses, who think that they want equal rights (and Walzer says they want revolution)? Remember, too, that some societies demand DUTIES that include going to war against other societies. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
In this collection of essays, Michael Walzer discusses how obligations are incurred, sustained, and (sometimes) abandoned by citizens of the modern state and members of political parties and movements as they respond to and participate in the most crucial and controversial aspects of citizenship: resistance, dissent, civil disobedience, war, and revolution. Walzer approaches these issues with insight and historical perspective, exhibiting an extraordinary understanding for rebels, radicals, and rational revolutionaries. The reader will not always agree with Walzer but he cannot help being stimulated, excited, challenged, and moved to thoughtful analysis. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
