"This collection of essays makes a powerful and coherent case for a renascent pragmatism as a tool and organizing principle for socio-legal research — and for the talents of a new generation of scholars embracing this tool. The uninitiated reader will learn important insights into the contribution and history of pragmatism, while those more familiar with pragmatism will see its particular utility for cutting-edge socio-legal research — superbly exemplified in this volume." Bryant Garth, Director, American Bar Foundation, Chicago, USA.
My essay, "The Dilemma of Democracy: Diversity of Interests and Common Experiences," is included in this collection.
