📗 Libro en inglés DEMOCRATIC AUTHORITY: A PHILOSOPHICAL FRAMEWORK

"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 "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."--"This book breaks new ground, developing an overall view of democratic procedure, in particular of its legitimacy, that really has no precedent in the literature. It will stand as the canonical defense of epistemic proceduralism
