Beskrivelse af Empowering Citizens, Engaging the Public
This book is the first comprehensive study to respond to the ongoing debates on political sciencesΓÇÖ fragmentation, doubtful relevance, and disconnect with the larger public. It explores the implications of the argument that political science ought to become more topic-driven, more relevant and more comprehensible for "lay" audiences. Consequences would include evolving a culture of public engagement, challenging tendencies toward liarsΓÇÖ rule, and emphasizing the role of ΓÇ£largeΓÇ¥ themes in academic education and research, the latter being identified as those areas where severe democratic erosion is occurring ΓÇô such as escalating income and wealth disparities pushing democracy towards plutocracy, ubiquitous change triggering insecurity and aggression, racist prejudice polarizing societies, and counter-terrorism strategies subverting civil liberties.
Political science needs to address these pressing problems ahead of other issues by in-depth research and broadly accessible public narratives, including solution-orientated normative notions. This need provides the final justification for evolving a discipline where problems would take priority over methods and public relevance over sophisticated specialization.
