In diesem Buch geht es um eine Neubestimmung von Demokratie durch den Nachweis, dass die Demokratie diejenige politische Organisationsform darstellt, die dem grundlegenden menschlichen Selbstverständnis entspricht. Um diesen Nachweis zu erbringen, muss die Verankerung der Demokratie in der sozialen Existenzform des Menschen aufgezeigt werden.

Der politische Philosoph und Politiker Cicero wird in der Rezeptionsgeschichte der Gegenwart nur noch als restaurativer Mahner in der Endphase der römischen Republik wahrgenommen. Ciceros umfangreiches, wenn auch fragmentarisches Werk lässt sich aber durchaus produktiv für die Klärung gegenwärtiger Probleme erschließen, z.B. für eine zeitgemäße republikanische Modellbildung oder für die Konzeption deliberativer Demokratievorstellungen
Much of our daily lives are spent talking to one another, in both ordinary conversation and more specialized settings such as meetings, interviews, classrooms, and courtrooms. It is largely through conversation that the major institutions of our society - economy, religion, politics, family and law - are implemented. This book Emanuel Schegloff, the first in a series and first published in 2007, introduces the findings and theories of conversation analysis. Together, the volumes in the series constitute a complete and authoritative 'primer' in the subject. The topic of this first volume is 'sequence organization' - the ways in which turns-at-talk are ordered and combined to make actions take place in conversation, such as requests, offers, complaints, and announcements. Containing many examples from real-life conversations, it will be invaluable to anyone interested in human interaction and the workings of conversation

In Emanuel Adler's distinctive constructivist approach to international relations theory, international practices evolve in tandem with collective knowledge of the material and social worlds. This book - comprising a fresh selection of his journal publications, a substantial new introduction, three previously unpublished articles - points IR constructivism in a novel direction, characterized as 'communitarian'. Adler's synthesis does not herald the end of the nation-state; nor does it suggest that agency is unimportant in international life. Rather, it argues that what mediates between individual and state agency and social structures are communities of practice, which are the wellspring and repositories of collective meanings and social practices. The concept of communities of practice casts new light on epistemic communities and security communities, helping to explain why certain ideas congeal into human practices and others do not, and which social mechanisms can facilitate the emergence of normatively better communities.
