Why read it?

1 author picked The Postmodern Predicament as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved Bruce Ackerman’s recent book because he is also a professor of constitutional law reflecting on the state of democracy today but in an existential way, looking laterally at possible solutions to our political problems. Our starting points are similar, but proposed solutions different and complementary—I learned a tremendous amount from this book.

From C.L.'s list on worried about democracy now.
