Le public et ses problèmes
John Dewey2003

A classic in social and political philosophy. In his charactristic and provocative dialectic style, John Dewey clarifies the meaning and implications of such concepts as "the public", "the state", "government", and "political democracy", distinguishes his a posterior reasoning from a priori reasoning which, he argues, permeates less meaningful discussions of basic concepts ; and repeatedly demonstrates the inter-relationships between fact and theory. As in other writings, Dewey exhibits his strong faith in the potential of human intellignece to solve the public's problems.
