This expansive volume traces the rhetoric of reform across American history, examining such pivotal periods as the American Revolution, slavery, McCarthyism, and today's gay liberation movement. At a time when social movements led by religious leaders, from Louis Farrakhan to Pat Buchanan, are playing a central role in American politics, James Darsey connects this radical tradition with its prophetic roots.Public discourse in the West is derived from the Greek principles of civility, diplomacy, compromise, and negotiation. On this model, radical speech is often taken to be a sympton of social disorder. Not so, contends Darsey, who argues that the rhetoric of reform in America represents the continuation of a tradition separate from the commonly accepted principles of the Greeks. Though the links have gone unrecognized, the American radical tradition stems not from Aristotle, he maintains, but from the prophets of the Hebrew Bible.

L'intervention dans le débat public est, pour Habermas, partie intégrante de son activité de philosophe. Ces Ecrits politiques doivent donc être considérés comme le lieu d'élaboration et de mise à l'épreuve de la théorie critique de la société, le témoignage de ce que la philosophie est, plus que jamais, l'époque actuelle «saisie par la pensée». Rédigés entre l'automne 1981 et le printemps 1990, ces essais abordent des questions esthétiques, culturelles, juridiques, historiques et politiques autour d'un axe central : celui de la question de l'identité allemande et de la culture européenne.
