I am pleased to announce the publication of my latest book, Meritocratic Democracy: A Cross-Cultural Political Theory, published by Oxford University Press and now available for online order.
About the Book
Meritocratic Democracy puts into dialogue contemporary works in Western democratic theory and Confucian political theory to examine the effectiveness of democracy as a decision-making system, the role of political leaders and political parties in real-world democracies. The result is a unique cross-cultural theory of democracy, meritocratic democracy, which combines democratic principles with a system of ‘partisan juries’ at the party level to enhance the quality of political leaders in democracy. Ultimately, this book shows that cross-cultural dialogue is imperative to generate innovative solutions to pressing political issues and foster reciprocal corrections.
I hope these offers make the book more accessible. Thank you for your interest. I look forward to engaging with readers and colleagues about the ideas presented in Meritocratic Democracy: A Cross-Cultural Political Theory.
