From the Back Cover

"A brave and beautiful book that grows in power and poignancy after 9/11. Rejecting the dismal view that the global world will be mired in the 'clash of civilizations' and the culture wars, Benhabib restores our faith in the human need to narrativize the historical and cultural experiences of self and other. This wonderful work allows us to hope that the contested conversations of mankind may converge in the intricate dialogues of the democratic process."--Homi K. Bhabha, Harvard University

"Seyla Benhabib's book presents a subtly defined, vigorously argued universalist position in democratic theory, one that nevertheless accommodates (and essentially integrates) varieties of multiculturalism. It is especially notable for going beyond the trite oppositions between the politics of cultural identity and the theory of deliberative democracy."--Amelie Rorty, Brandeis University

"Reading this book was a deeply satisfying experience. Benhabib's model of democracy is firmly rooted in a systematic and well-developed moral theory, and her policy recommendations are informed both by extensive philosophical reflection and by her uncompromising commitment to individual identity."--Alison Jaggar, University of Colorado

Seyla Benhabib is Eugene Meyer Professor of Political Science and Philosophy at Yale University. Her books include Transformations of Citizenship (The Spinoza Lectures), The Reluctant Modernism of Hannah Arendt, and Situating the Self. Among the volumes she has edited are Democracy and Difference (Princeton) and Feminism as Critique
