Book excerpt: This volume focuses on democratic experimentalism, gathering a collection of original and previously unpublished essays focusing upon its major outlines, as well as specific aspects ¿ both promising and troublesome - of this theoretical approach.

Issues of democratic governance, political organization and the relationship of law to democracy are analyzed.
