Reviews

Reviews for the original edition of Retrieving Democracy: ‘An outstanding work in democratic theory… What Joseph Schumpeter did for liberal democracy, Philip Green has done for radical democracy. Green’s interpretation of democratic equality provides the essential guidelines, both in theory and in practice, for the transformation of society from a pseudo-democracy to a genuine one.’ Peter Bachrach. ‘I doubt we will want to forget his provoking ideas…[Green] is sensitive to the needs of equality, and we would do well to heed many of his suggestions.’ Elaine Spitz, Political Theory, Vol 15, No. 3.
