—Zsuzsanna Chappell, Political Studies Review
"World public opinion is waking up. The power that rests in the
hands of ever more restricted circles is becoming increasingly
contested. John Dryzek provides brilliant arguments that will
enable global civil society to oppose the dominant ideology and
take control over our future."
—Daniele Archibugi, Italian National Research Council;
University of London
"Deliberative Global Politics is a major statement in the
debates about democracy beyond the state. This accessible and
theoretically sophisticated book offers a theory of discursive
contestation in international public spheres as a means to achieve
democracy in a world that can no longer be governed on a top-down
basis."
—James Bohman, Saint Louis University
"In this thought-provoking little book, John Dryzek presents a
new way of thinking about world affairs, one in which an
'engagement across discourses' can lead to deliberative democracy
on a global scale ... all readers of this book will come away
recognizing a range of new questions that call for rigorous and
sustained consideration."
