Hanging Together

Role-Based Constitutional Fellowship and the Challenge of Difference and Disagreement

Eric W. Cheng | Waseda University, Japan

This book shows how, through ‘role-based constitutional fellowship,’ democratic trust can be cultivated without squashing difference and disagreement, and without stymying efforts to rectify undue social hierarchies (e.g., racial hierarchies). It is a response to the polarization and rise of autocratic forces which threaten democracy today.

The Argument for Universal Unionization

Mark R. Reiff | University of California, Davis

Reiff shows how this argument can be used to justify not only universal unionization, but also a wide variety of other progressive policies.
