This groundbreaking study sets out to clarify one of the most influential but least studied of all political concepts. Despite continual talk of popular sovereignty, the idea of the people has been neglected by political theorists who have been deterred by its vagueness. Margaret Canovan argues that it deserves serious analysis, and that it's many ambiguities point to unresolved political issues.
The book begins by charting the conflicting meanings of the people, especially in Anglo-American usage, and traces the concept's development from the ancient populus Romanus to the present day.
The book's main purpose is, however, to analyse the political issues signalled by the people's ambiguities. In the remaining chapters, Margaret Canovan considers their theoretical and practical aspects:
Where are the people's boundaries? Is people equivalent to nation, and how is it related to humanity - people in general?
Populists aim to 'give power back to the people'; how is populism related to democracy?
How can the sovereign people be an immortal collective body, but at the same time be us as individuals? Can we ever see that sovereign people in action?
Political myths surround the figure of the people and help to explain its influence; should the people itself be regarded as fictional?
This original and accessible study sheds a fresh light on debates about popular sovereignty, and will be an important resource for students and scholars of political theory.
Margaret Canovan is Emeritus Professor of Political Thought at the University of Keele.
今天川崎ゼミ最後一次發錶,這本書也看完瞭。在什麼都冠以“人民”頭銜的中華“人民”共和國,這本理論性的書很值得一讀。
評分人民研究的扛鼎之作,迄今為止將人民概念剖析的最為清晰。
評分梳理人民概念復雜性。外部邊界:民族性vs普適性;內部邊界:平民vs.精英;實踐:常規政治vs.非常時期;實踐性vs神話性。人民作為主權者的意誌實際上隻能在非常情況下錶達齣來,但其矛盾使得不同政治目的都可以對其加以利用。文獻全麵、討論細緻、語言古雅、論述羅嗦、結論乏力。可能會是未來國內政治理論的一個熱點?
