Summary
This volume and its companion, Democracy's Value, grew out of a conference on “Rethinking Democracy for a New Century” held at Yale in February 1997. The conference was sponsored by Yale's Program in Ethics, Politics, and Economics, with financial support coming from Yale's Olmsted Fund, Castle Fund, and Kempf Fund. Thanks are due to Kellianne Farnham for going well beyond the call of duty in organizing the conference and helping us assemble the manuscript. We are also pleased to record our gratitude to John Haslam of Cambridge University Press for his interest in the project from the beginning, and for facilitating the timely appearance of the volumes.
