Ian Shapiro is Sterling Professor of Political Science at Yale University, where he also serves as Henry R. Luce Director of the MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies. He has written widely and influentially on democracy, justice, and the methods of social inquiry. A native of South Africa, he received his J.D. from the Yale Law School and his Ph.D from the Yale Political Science Department where he has taught since 1984 and served as chair from 1999 to 2004. Shapiro is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and the American Philosophical Society, and a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. He is a past fellow of the Carnegie Corporation, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences. He has held visiting appointments at the University of Cape Town and Nuffield College, Oxford. His most recent books are The Real World of Democratic Theory; Containment: Rebuilding a Strategy against Global Terror; The Flight From Reality in the Human Sciences; and Death by a Thousand Cuts: The Fight Over Taxing Inherited Wealth (with Michael Graetz). His current research concerns the relations between democracy and the distribution of income and wealth.
The book is conceived of as introductory in the sense that no prior knowledge of political philosophy is assumed. Its central focus is on different theories of political legitimacy in the utilitarian, Marxist, social contract, anti-Enlightenment, and democratic traditions. My discussion of these different theories is meant to give readers a grasp of the major intellectual traditions that have shaped political argument in the West over the past several centuries. The theories are set in historical context, but the main focus is on current formulations as applied to contemporary problems. Although introductory, the book is written from a distinctive point of view and advances a particular argument.
