Among the diverse and valuable publications made on political philosophy in times of pandemic, the book Democracy without shortcuts written by Cristina Lafont (Oxford U.P., 2020) deserves a privileged place on our shelves. The clarity and precision of her proposals leads not only to a reasonable, but mainly exciting, defense of a participatory deliberative democracy. Immersed in this stimulating theoretical atmosphere but inspired in a reflexive republican conception of deliberative democracy, I propose here a different perspective and application of minipublics, that differs from the one indicated by the author.
We look forward to welcoming you on July 4-6, 2022 for our Annual Conference on Global Problems and Prospects in Public Law.
