Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Argues that critical contemporary challenges to democracy can be overcome by a citizen-centric deliberative approach.
MoreLong description:
Democracy today faces deep and complex challenges, especially when it comes to political communication and the quality of public discourse. Dishonest and manipulative communication amplified by unscrupulous politicians and media pervades these diabolical times, enabling right-wing populism, extremism, truth denial, and authoritarianism to flourish. To tackle these issues, we need to encourage meaningful deliberative communication - creating spaces for reflective and constructive dialogue, repairing unhealthy public spheres while preserving healthier ones, and building discursive bridges across deep divides. Citizens who see through elite manipulations should be at the core of this response, especially if bad elite behavior is to be effectively constrained. Democratic activists and leaders, diverse interpersonal networks, resilient public spheres, deliberative innovations and clever communication strategies all have vital roles to play in both defending and renewing democracy. Healthy discursive infrastructures can make democracies work again.
'Two of our leading deliberative democrats ask what deliberative democracy can do to halt democratic erosion. Confronting the hard realities of democrat decline, B&&&228;chtiger and Dryzek sketch out how citizen centered communicative practices can help turn back the tide of that decline. Realistic and solution centered, this is a much-needed update to the deliberative democracy paradigm.' Simone Chambers, Professor and Chair of Political Science, University of California Irvine
