Each of the essays in this book is a highly original work reflecting a command of Wolin's political and social thought, while taking it as a point of departure for developing his work beyond its present level of achievement. Democracy and Vision thus records Wolin's unique contribution while charting new territory that his work's continuing influence will shape in important ways. A book indispensable for those who seek to be engaged by the leading arguments in contemporary political theory. --Morton Schoolman, State University of New York at Albany Democracy and Vision is valuable because it relates developments in late-modern life and politics to the 'vicissitudes' of theorizing. This is a splendid commentary on the current condition and character of political theory as an endeavor, partly by displaying and relating its many voices and tensions, and partly by showing how these voices reverberate in other fields of inquiry. --George Shulman, New York University
