Theoretical Contributions
Influenced by critical theory, existentialism, and liberal socialism, Bronner is best known his reinterpretation of tradition and a host of concepts like the class ideal and the cosmopolitan sensibility. He is perhaps the foremost contemporary proponent of developing the linkage of political theory, which has become increasingly academic and metaphysical in orientation, with practical and progressive political concerns. His work is discussed in Rational Radicalism and Political Theory: Essays in Honor of `Stephen Eric Bronner ed. Michael J. Thompson (Lexington Books: Lanham, 2010)

Famous quotes containing the word theoretical:
“The desire to serve the common good must without fail be a requisite of the soul, a necessity for personal happiness; if it issues not from there, but from theoretical or other considerations, it is not at all the same thing.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
