In this book, a number of leading democratic theorists address the key issues that surround the theory and practice of deliberative democracy.

Review :
This volume provides a comprehensive, structured and insightful discussion of the key issues and challenges facing deliberative democracy as it enters its third generation and is to be welcomed as a significant contribution to the literature in this field. Deliberative democracy goes from strength to strength in the theory, practice, and analysis of politics. One sign of its success is the number of controversies that surround it. Deliberative Democracy: Issues and Cases is an excellent and essential guide to key contemporary controversies in the field engaged by some of its best scholars.
