The Ethos of Pluralization
How plural, really, is pluralism today? In this book a prominent political theorist reworks the traditional pluralist imagination, rendering it more inclusive and responsive to new drives to pluralization.
"Connolly’s latest tour de force challenges contemporary pluralism to forsake its conservative past and move in the direction of a more dynamic and expansive democratic project. The Ethos of Pluralization offers a trenchant critique of the most rigid of contemporary political postures and moves us all to consider what it might mean, radically, to live democratically. Passionate and persuasive, this text analyzes and enacts the encounter with difference in a specifically political sense. A brilliant and urgent book." — Judith Butler, University of California, Berkeley
