Summary
La philosophie politique restaurée ne semble guère pousser sa réflexion au-delà de ce que les gestionnaires de l’État peuvent arguer sur la démocratie et la loi, sur le droit et l’État de droit. En bref, elle semble surtout assurer la communication entre les grandes doctrines classiques et les formes de légitimation ordinaires des États dits de démocratie libérale. Jacques Rancière, La Mésentente, 1995.
