Title: From pluralist to patriotic politics
Description: "Drawing on a 'hermeneutical' conception of interpretation, the author develops an original account of practical reasoning, one which assumes that, though making compromises in the face of conflicts is indeed often unavoidable, there are times when reconciliation, as distinct from compromise, is feasible. For this to be so, however, citizens must strive to converse - and not just negotiate - with each other, thus fulfilling the good that is at the heart of their shared political community.

This is the central message of the patriotic alternative to pluralist politics that the author defends here."--BOOK JACKET.
