Viewing contemporary democratic practice through the lens of Hannah Arendt's political theory and thoroughly exploring the difficulties of democratic citizenship and civil society that concerned Arendt, Jeffrey Isaac deals with issues of pressing contemporary relevance. He looks at the Eastern and Central European revolutions of 1989, the future of democracy in America, and the ethical significance of Bosnian genocide.
