Pluralization of Life-Worlds and Charismatic Domination, Falmer Brighton 1986.
- A contribution to the debates between empirical / realistic and neoclassical theorists of democracy, by examining the conception of the >typical citizen< that underlies each tradition and serves as the basis for their respective conceptions of democracy. By borrowing from the discussions of sociologists and social psychologists (especially Erich FROMM) a set of >inconvenient facts< is posed to each of these conceptions. Analysis suggests that the social tendencies of modern mass society lead to pluralization of life-worlds (per Alfred Schutz and Jurgen Habermas). The political implications of this trend, particularly for democracy theory, are discussed.
