Law and Society in a Populist Age
Bristol University Press (Verlag)
978-1-5292-0025-6 (ISBN)
Amitai Etzioni, one of the most respected thinkers in the US, argues for a new liberal communitarian approach as an effective response to populism. This recognizes that different members of the society have differing values, interests, and needs that cannot be fully reconciled to legislation in a populist age.
The book considers the core challenges in contexts including national security versus privacy, private sector responsibility, freedom of the press, campaign finance reform, regulatory law and the legal status of terrorists. It offers a timely discussion of the relationship of the law to the citizen in a fast-changing environment.
Amitai Etzioni is the first University Professor of The George Washington University. He previously taught at Columbia University and at Harvard University. He served as a Senior Advisor to the White House from 1979-1980 and as president of the American Sociological Association. He has contributed to The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal and was awarded the Seventh James Wilbur Award for Extraordinary Contributions to the Appreciation and Advancement of Human Values and the Sociological Practice Association's Outstanding Contribution Award.
