The defect, Sandel maintains, lies in the impoverished vision of citizenship and community shared by Democrats and Republicans alike. American politics has lost its civic voice, leaving both liberals and conservatives unable to inspire the sense of community and civic engagement that self-government requires.

In search of a public philosophy adequate to our time, Sandel ranges across the American political experience, recalling the arguments of Jefferson and Hamilton, Lincoln and Douglas, Holmes and Brandeis, FDR and Reagan. He relates epic debates over slavery and industrial capitalism to contemporary controversies over the welfare state, religion, abortion, gay rights, and hate speech. Democracy's Discontent provides a new interpretation of the American political and constitutional tradition that offers hope of rejuvenating our civic life.

迈克尔·桑德尔教授的大名可以说在政治学界，特别是政治哲学界是无人不知、无人不晓，他所讲授的《公正》更是哈佛大学最受欢迎的公开课，《民主的不满》实际上就是他今年来对美国政治哲学发展变化的一种批评态度，同时也是一种系统总结。通过本书，不仅能够深入了解美国政治思...

原版的实在是比中文版翻译好读很多。Sandel写作有典型的美国人的风格，逻辑清晰明确，前后呼应。翻译以后这种感觉都丢失了。
