  1. Corruption as systemic political decay.Camila Vergara - 2021 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 47 (3):322-346.
    By offering an analysis of different conceptions of corruption connected to the political regime and contingency in which they developed, the article retrieves a systemic meaning of political corruption. Through the works of Plato, Aristotle, Polybius and Machiavelli, it reconstructs a dimension of political corruption particular to popular governments and also engages with recent neo-republican and institutionalist attempts at redefining political corruption. The article concludes that we still lack a proper conception of systemic corruption comparable to the one of the (...)

  • Cicero's liberatores: A reassessment.Nathan Leber - 2018 - Classical Quarterly 68 (1):160-177.
    One of the simplest methods used by Cicero for depicting a personality or characteristic of an individual within his correspondence was to use a nickname. When describing groups, the natural progression was to use collective nouns that helped to define some essential quality of this collective. The enormity of Caesar's assassination provided an opportunity to use a plethora of terms for the conspirators, most conspicuously seen in Cicero's treatment of Cassius and Brutus following the death of Caesar. The act itself (...)

  • Critical Republicanism and the Discursive Demands of Free Speech.Suzanne Whitten - 2023 - Philosophy and Social Criticism 49 (7):856-880.
    A growing body of literature in feminist philosophy exposes the way in which occupying a particular group identity inhibits an affected agent’s ability to engage in communicative exchange effectively. These accounts reveal a fault in standard liberal defences of free speech, showing how, if free speech is a goal worth pursuing, then it must involve both a concern about the legitimate limits of state interference and of the effect of social norms on an agent’s communicative capacities. Building on the emergence (...)

  • William Manning and the political theory of the dependent classes.Alex Gourevitch - 2012 - Modern Intellectual History 9 (2):331-360.
    This article reappraises the political ideas of William Manning, and through him the trajectory of early modern republicanism. Manning, an early American farmer writing in the 1780s and 1790s, developed the republican distinction between and into a novel On this theory, it is the dependent, laboring classes who share an interest in social equality. Because of this interest, they are the only ones who can achieve and maintain republican liberty. With this identification of the interests of the dependent classes with (...)

  • Civic Republican Social Justice and the Case of State Grammar Schools in England.Andrew Peterson - 2017 - Studies in Philosophy and Education 37 (2):167-179.
    The aim of this paper is to consider the ways in which civic republican theory can provide a meaningful and useful account of social justice, one that is which holds resonance for educational debates. Recognising the need for educationalists interested in civic republicanism to pay greater attention to ideas of justice—and in particular social justice as it concerns relationships between citizens —it is argued that a form of civic republicanism committed to freedom as non-domination is capable of providing a substantive (...)

  • Republicanismo político y ciudadanía social.Esteban Anchustegui Igartua - 2012 - Araucaria 14 (27).
    Este artículo centra su reflexión sobre los derechos sociales en el Estado de Bienestar, y plantea la pregunta de si su protección es indispensable para posibilitar la autonomía del ciudadano. Así, partiendo de que la exclusión del acceso efectivo a ciertos servicios básicos implica una reducción de la ciudadanía y de la integración política, considera que la participación ciudadana y la sociedad civil son elementos indispensables para repensar y democratizar un Estado de Bienestar anquilosado burocráticamente, sin que ello suponga un (...)

  • Ciudadanía e integración: los derechos sociales y la globalización.Esteban Anchustegui Igartua - 2012 - Co-herencia 9 (16):185-211.
    En este artículo se reflexiona sobre los derechos sociales, que son considerados derechos fundamentales y un prerrequisito para la integración política y la autonomía de los ciudadanos. Por tanto, ya se les considere derechos o prerrequisitos para el ejercicio de los derechos, la exclusión del acceso efectivo a ciertos servicios básicos implica una reducción de la ciudadanía como estatus civil y político. Además, la globalización económica ha producido una fuerte restricción en la aplicación estatal de las políticas sociales.

  • République et démocratie de Montesquieu à Madison.Jean-Fabien Spitz - 1997 - Revue de Synthèse 118 (2-3):259-283.
    La théorie politique est longtemps restée attachée au dogme selon lequel la république ne peut convenir qu'à de petits États, où la faible différenciation des conditions sociales autorise la formation d'un authentique intérêt commun. Montesquieu adopte une version de cet argument en soutenant que la politique moderne doit être non la recherche de l'intérêt commun, mais l'art de balancer les intérêts les uns contre les autres. Madison a répondu en montrant comment, au contraire, la république n'est possible que dans les (...)
