Recensione:
Today, the literature of deliberative and democratic theory is significant. Frank Fischer's recent book is innovative, exploring social epistemology as its key issue... This impressive work accurately illuminates the insights of a policy analyst moving into discursive, interpretive, narrative, or argumentative-based approaches... This book provides a good basis for engaging a critical debate about the interpretive research agenda, organized through seminars and networks that has spanned over two decades... Readers will certainly appreciate the author's effort in scrutinizing examples of literature throughout the book, and hence the discovering and rediscovering of authors, perspectives, and articles... I recommend that one read Democracy & Expertise precisely for this reason, namely, its vibrant ability to reinvigorate ways of thinking and stimulate new avenues as well. (Fabrizio Cantelli, The American Review of Public Administration)
