Reviews
Winner of the 2010 Spitz Prize for the Best Book on Liberal or Democratic Theory, International Conference for the Study of Political Thought Winner of the 2009 Alexander L. George Book Award of the International Society of Political Psychology "Krause's Civil Passions is an ambitious work of political theory that attempts to bridge the age-old divide between reason and emotion in theories of moral and political judgment... This is a well-written, cogently argued, provocative, and important contribution to recent scholarship on democratic deliberation, theories of justice, and the proper role of affect within the political realm."--Choice "Sharon Krause offers a significant reinterpretation of the relations among reason, emotion, morality, and politics. Civil Passions will become a major reference point for philosophers, political theorists, and legal theorists working on a broad range of issues, including moral psychology, metaethics, deliberative democracy, and legitimacy."--Matthew D. Mendham, Journal of the Review of Politics "As scholars of deliberation move this research agenda forward, they can be grateful to Krause ... for bringing to the fore just how multidimensional deliberative democracy really is."--Jurg Steiner, Perspectives on Politics "Civil Passions is a well-written contribution to this debate and will be of interest both to political theorists and to moral philosophers."--Liz Sutherland, Political Studies Review
