Stephen Bronner - Theoretical Contributions

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)
