This Palgrave Pivot series
presents ground-breaking, critical perspectives on political theory: titles
published in this series present influential political thinkers on a global
scale from around the world, with interpretations based on their original languages,
providing synoptic views on their works, and written by internationally leading
scholars. Individual interpretations emphasize the language and cultural
context of political thinkers and of political theory as primary media through
which political thoughts and concepts originate and generate. The series
invites proposals for new Palgrave Pivot projects by and on authors from all
traditions, areas, and cultural contexts. Individual books should be between
25,000 and 50,000 words long according to the Palgrave Pivot format. For more
details about Palgrave Pivot, an innovative new publishing format from Palgrave
Macmillan, please visit www.palgrave.com/pivot. Emphases shall be on political
thinkers who are important for our understanding of: the relation between
individual and society and conceptualizations of both, forms of participation
and decision-making, conceptualizations of political deliberation and discourse,
constructions of identity, conceptualizations of the 'human condition' of
politics, ontologies and epistemologies of the political/of politics, conceptualizations
of social and political change and/or tradition, and conceptualizations of the
rise and fall political orders.
