Political Participation and Democracy in Britain
The results of a survey on the level and patterns of political involvement in Britain.
Political Elites
Political Elites, first published in 1969, reviews the literature on the role of elites in politics. It deals with both the 'classic' elite theorists - Mosca, Pareto, Michels, Burnham and C. Wright Mills - and with many of the empirical and theoretical works on elites by modern political scientists and sociologists. It seeks to clarify the central terms of elite discourse, some of which have entered the everyday political vocabulary - 'elitism', 'power elite', 'establishment', 'elite consensus', 'iron law of oligarchy' and 'mass'. It explores the ways in which the descriptions of power relationships can subtly be infiltrated by the values of the observers.

The Cambridge History of Eighteenth-century Philosophy

Political Change and Human Emancipation in the Works of Heinrich Von Kleist
Challenges traditional views of Kleist by situating his work in relation to the political and philosophical debates of his age. The German writer Heinrich von Kleist (1777-1811) was an unconventional and often controversial figure in his own day, and has remained so. His ideas on art, politics, and gender relations continue to challenge modern readers, andhis complex and radically open texts remain the object of vigorous scholarly debate. Kleist has often been portrayed as a "poet without a society," whose writing served as escape from the realities of his social environment. Thisnew study challenges such a view by situating Kleist in relation to the central political and philosophical debat...

Wirtschaft, Demokratie und liberaler Sozialismus
Je ausgeprägter das Wissen um machbare Alternativen zum kapitalistischen Markt, desto wirkmächtiger die Kritik an dieser Wirtschaftsform. Von dieser Annahme ist Hannes Kuchs Studie geleitet, die eine neue Form der Kapitalismuskritik entwickelt und Alternativen zum Kapitalismus analysiert. Der kapitalistische Markt unterwandert das, was G. W. F. Hegel »Sittlichkeit« nannte: ein lebendiges, wirksames Ethos demokratischer Gerechtigkeit. Daraus ergibt sich die Forderung, dass demokratische Fähigkeiten bereits in der Wirtschaft eingeübt und wachgehalten werden müssen. Das ist die leitende Idee des liberalen Sozialismus. Die Umrisse dieser Wirtschaftsform werden in Auseinandersetzung mit der Idee einer Eigentümerdemokratie entfaltet, die John Rawls als Alternative zum Kapitalismus entwickelt. Für seine Habilitation gewann Hannes Kuch im Jahr 2024 den Frankfurter Habilitationspreis für Philosophie.
