Features: Deliberative democracy is a new form of democratic theory and practice that emerged in Western countries in the late 20th century, representing a certain transcendence of traditional representative democracy and marking a new development in liberal democratic thought. Prominent liberal thinkers such as Rawls, Giddens, and Habermas are active advocates of deliberative democracy. The "Deliberative Democracy Translation Series" selects representative works by liberal scholars on deliberative democracy research, to a significant extent reflecting the intellectual origins, key figures, main arguments, important debates, and practical foundations of contemporary Western deliberative democracy theory. It aims to provide foundational literature for domestic readers to understand and study contemporary Western liberal politics.
