My desire to write about the welfare state was no doubt influenced by my direct encounters with individuals navigating the complexities of the modern state as an organizer and constituency assistant for the New Democratic Party, which was only possible thanks to Jenn McGinn, Mable Elmore, and Norman Gludovatz. My initial interest in thinking about politics through political theory formed at the University of British Columbia, and I am grateful to my teachers there for encouraging me to pursue that interest further: Robert Crawford, who guided me through my first encounters with theory in Arts One, Barbara Arneil, Bruce Baum, and Mark Warren. Special thanks must be reserved for Laura Janara, who read countless drafts of my grad school applications, has been a wellspring of encouragement, and continues to be an exemplary scholar-teacher and friend. I could not have asked for a better place to pursue political theory than the University of Chicago. With their unstinting support, my committee has nurtured this project from its initial inchoate form to a finished product. Bob Gooding-Williams provided astute advice for sharpening the deeper philosophical implications of my arguments. Patchen Markell’s work stands as a model for how close and careful reading can produce compelling political insights, and his ongoing feedback and support has greatly improved all aspects of the dissertation. Lisa Wedeen constantly pushes me to be self-critical, to think outside the box of what political theory should be, and to strive for the utmost clarity and precision in my arguments. Finally, I have been immensely lucky to have John McCormick as my dissertation supervisor. I came to U Chicago to work with John, and his guidance as a mentor has exceeded all expectations. More than just v keeping the project politically honest or helping me navigate the sometimes-choppy seas of academia, he has made graduate school genuinely enjoyable. From an initial fateful conversation at the Pub where he encouraged me to continue thinking about Habermas, Arendt, and Weber to seeing me over the finish line, every aspect of this project in some way reflects his support and intellectual influence. This project has also benefited from the University of Chicago’s broader intellectual community. The Political Theory, Social Theory, and Comparative Politics Workshops have been a source of stimulation and encouragement. I have been helped in various ways by conversations with, seminars taught by, or comments from Gary Herrigel, Hans Joas, Cheol- Sung Lee, Sankar Muthu, Jennifer Pitts, Bill Sewell, Dan Slater, and Nathan Tarcov. I have also been lucky to have a remarkable group of graduate school colleagues who made U Chicago not only an intellectual home, but a community of friends, so thanks to Sofia Alia Fenner, Milena Ang, Katerina Apostolidis, Fabian Arzuaga, Ashleigh Campi, Adam Dean, Sam Galloway, Yuna Blajer de la Garza, Rohit Goel, Daragh Grant, Sarah Johnston, Morgan Kaplan, Ainsley LeSure, Will Levine, Dan Luban, J.J. McFadden, Emma Mackinnon, Lucas Pinhiero, Bob Reamer, Larry Svabek, Tania Weinstein, Michael Williams, and Tal Yifat. Four colleagues in particular have been essential for making it through this stage and have provided constant feedback and encouragement, so my immense gratitude to Gordon Arlen, Daniel Nichanian, Natasha Piano, and Ethan Porter. Various parts of this dissertation have benefited from feedback from many scholars at different forums. I have presented various parts at conferences of the Law and Society Association, the Midwest Political Science Association, the American Political Science Association, and the Western Political Science Association, the University of Chicago Political vi Theory Workshop, and the Universität Bremen Political Theory Workshop, where I received excellent comments. For advice and thoughts along the way, I would also like to thanks Chiara Cordelli, Adam Etinson, Adom Getachew, Jeff Green, Christian Joerges, Matt Landauer, Stephan Leibfried, Ben MacKean, Martin Nonhoff, Frank Nullmeier, Corey Robin, Amit Ron, Shalini Satkunanandan, Emma Saunders-Hastings, Klaus Schlichte, Frieder Vogelmann, Jim Wilson, and Dieter Wolf. The project was supported by research fellowships from the University of Chicago, the Canadian Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, the Mellon Foundation, and the CRC 597 “Transformations of the State” at Universität Bremen. Material in Chapter 4 was previously published as ““Fit to Enter the World”: Hannah Arendt on Politics, Economics, and the Welfare State” American Political Science Review 108, no. 4 (November 2014): 856-869, © Cambridge University Press. Material in Chapter 1 will be published as “Between Charisma and Domination: On Max Weber’s Critique of Democracy” Journal of Politics (forthcoming 2017), © University of Chicago Press. Finally, my friends and family have kept it all in perspective. Vida Yao is a constant companion in observing the oddities and wonders of academia and life. In Germany, Jan Brönneke welcomed us into his family, and we were lucky to also find the Schimos, Falk and Ellen, Gustavo Nunes Martins, and Cindy Schoenfeldt. In Chicago, Karen Underhill, Rick Meller, the Cygleskies, Rick Perlstein, Judy Cohn, Neil Landers, and Karl Vogel became our self-made family. Dominic Major, Matt Neuroth, Cory Hance, and John Sorenstein helped me make enough noise to get through the home stretch. Hitchcock House and everyone in it have been an amazing home and community in which to finish the dissertation. On Bowen Island, Mary, Leo, and Darwin constantly provided relief from summer writing. The Toronto Kleins and Florida Lanthier-Castillos have been a wonderful source of encouragement. Ella, Alix, and Gaby vii have been the right mix of supportive and skeptical. Renée more than anyone has carried the load of this dissertation, losing weekend upon weekend to the demands of writing, and she has been unflagging in her emotional support for and intellectual engagement with the project. I am very lucky to have a partner who understands academia while keeping it in perspective. Iris has made doing it worthwhile. Finally, my parents, Louis Klein and Aryana Rayne Klein, nurtured, not just my interest in political theory, but a love of knowledge, learning, and the world. I would never have been able to do this without their constant encouragement and support. viii Abstract This dissertation argues for the democratic potentials of political struggles over social welfare policies and institutions, potentials neglected by currently dominant approaches in democratic theory. I contend that critics underestimate the welfare's state's democratic significance because they conceive of political economy strictly in terms of instrumental mastery and technical calculation. This conception forms the implicit backdrop for deliberative- democratic defenses of the welfare state, which present it as the victory of universal solidarities over market imperatives and socioeconomic risks, as well as for radical-democratic critics, who present the welfare state as the consummation

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WORK UNDER DEMOCRACY
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WORK UNDER DEMOCRACY: LABOR, GENDER AND ARENDTIAN CITIZENSHIP Alison Kathryn Staudinger, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation Directed by: Stephen Elkin, Professor Emeritus Government & Politics In the interest of promoting a co-constitutive theory of democratic citizenship, this dissertation explores three questions. I ask how work is defined and how this definition creates a hierarchy of types of work, which then leads to my second question, which is how definitions of work or what is not work are carried over into the public space of poli- tics and citizenship, such that even legal citizens may be marginalized by the type of work that they do. I first critique democratic theory, particularly as centered on the idea of the public sphere, for failing to think about work, especially the labor that is required to build these political spaces. I then show how the contemporary economy challenges the ability of citizens to engage in political work because it produces conditions of pre- carious labor, ubiquitous work, the depoliticization of work itself, and incompatibility of wage labor and family life. I use two historical case studies to explore how groups have claimed collective rights housed in the substantive needs of communities when asserting the validity of their work for citizenship. I look to the Articles of Confederation and Dan- iel Shays for an example focused on waged labor, and then the temperance and Anti- temperance movements for a consideration of gendered reproductive labor. I then address my third question, which is whether it is possible to promote the political work of co- constituting a shared public world without also denigrating the labor, particularly care labor, that is supportive of this project.

  • Politics of Care
    THE POLITICS OF CARE' Laura T. Kessler INTRODUCTION Can family caregiving be a form of political resistance or expression? It can, especially when done by people ordinarily denied the privilege of family privacy by the state. Feminist and queer theorists within law have, for the most part, over- looked this aspect of caregiving, regarding unpaid family labor as a source of gender-based oppression or as an undervalued public commodity. Conse- quently, prominent feminist and queer legal theorists have set their sights on wage work1 or sexual liberation2 as more promising sources of emancipation for women. Although other legal feminists continue to focus on the problem of devalued family labor, these theorists tend to justify increased support for care work primarily on the benefits it confers on children and society, on liberal theories of societal obligation, on ending gender oppression, or on simple hu- man needs.3 This article examines a less well-explored conception of family caregiving within the feminist and queer legal theory literature, revealing the way that family caregiving can be a liberating practice for caregivers qua caregivers. Specifically, care work can constitute an affirmative political practice of resis- tance to a host of discriminatory institutions and ideologies, including the fam- ily, workplace, and state, as well as patriarchy, racism, and homophobia. I label such political work "transgressive caregiving" and locate it most centrally- * Professor of Law, University of Utah; email: [email protected].

  • A Jurisprudence of Nonviolence
    A Jurisprudence of Nonviolence YXTA MAYA MURRAYt Is there a way we could theorize about law that would make the world a less violent place? In the 1980s, cultural, or "different voice," feminist legal theory seemed poised to take up the mantles of Mohandas Gandhi and Martin Luther King by incorporating nonviolent values into society and the law. Based on the work of psychologist Carol Gilligan, cultural feminist legal theory valorizes the supposedly female virtues of caretaking and connectivity.' As elaborated by theorists such as Robin West, 2 Martha Minow, Joan Williams, and Christine Littleton,5 it also celebrates women's "ethic of care," which is a brand of moral reasoning that emphasizes empathy, particulars, and human relationships, as opposed to men's "standard of justice," which stresses individualism, abstraction, and autonomy. 6 Though these cultural feminists wrote on issues such as employment law7 and family law,8 their ideas about caring also promised to transform criminal law, Second Amendment jurisprudence, and international law. Indeed, no other jurisprudential school of thought appeared as well equipped to craft a legal theory of peace.9 As we all Professor of Law, Loyola Law School-Los Angeles.

  • Political Representation and Its Descriptive Conception
    Political representation and its descriptive conception A thesis on the complexity of political representation as a pluralistic concept with a special focus on its descriptive conception Author: T.G. Ooms Programme: Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) Topic: Bachelor’s Thesis Supervisors: Stefanie Beyens, Jonathan Benson Date: 16 August 2021 Institution: Utrecht University Student Number: 6470041 Abstract Parliamentarians in Western liberal democracies barely resemble the people they represent through their characteristics. Political consequences such as distrust, a loss in legitimacy, exclusion of political minorities and over-representation of political elites pose problems to the existing political structure. By answering the research question ‘can a descriptive conception of representation be theoretically and practically unified with a substantive conception of representation within a democratic party system?’, this thesis tries to provide a solution to the abovementioned problems. The thesis provides arguments for the intrinsic and instrumental importance of descriptive representation for political representation, a conception that is argued to be pluralistic in nature. After applying this new, pluralistic conception to a democratic party model that features cartel parties, five suggestions for improved representation arise: to connect representatives more to civil society, to disconnect them more from the state, to use quotes, better recruitment efforts or lotteries to ensure that electoral candidates represent the populace descriptively. Thus, the thesis provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary, theoretical and practical analysis of what it means to represent in contemporary democracies. Introduction A core principle that defines democratic government is the principle of representation. Party members that reside in parliament ought to represent the people, having been explicitly mandated to do so through the vote.

HERTZ* INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY Studying the First World War's origins, James Joll (1918-1994), Professor of International History at the University of London, offered this insight: "In the late 20th century we perhaps find it easier to conceive of foreign policy as being motivated by domestic preoccupations and by economic interests than by... considerations of prestige and glory. It does not necessarily follow that the men of 1914 thought in the same way as we do."' To recapture that age which ended during the First World War, this essay analyzes the meaning of "honour" as a staple of European political philosophy. The significance of the "word of honour" is then located in the context of European courtly society, where a king's honour is explored in relation to that of his country and in the "international of kings" that was the European States' system until 1917-18.

  • Department of Political Science Comparative Politics Preliminary Examination Reading List
    Department of Political Science Comparative Politics Preliminary Examination Reading List 2003-5/6 (Note changes in the exam format/rules as well as in the reading list.) The preliminary examination in comparative politics is based on a shared reading list. Faculty members from the sub-field have cooperated to create this list, which will remain without significant change until at least 2006. A few works pertain to more than one topic area and thus appear on the reading list in more than one place. It is helpful to think of the reading list both as identifying the most important topic areas in comparative politics and as providing a very basic “toolbox,” or repertoire, of important intellectual strategies for explaining patterns of behavior, attitudes, events, or institutions. These include both theoretical and empirical approaches. This list builds on syllabi in PS 641 and other departmental courses in the sub-field, although you may not have encountered everything in a class. It is wise to review the reading handouts from PS 641 and class notes from courses prior to taking the exam. It is also wise to defer the exam until you have taken an adequate sampling of the courses in the sub-field. We give few honors grades, but almost all students who have won honors over the past five years have taken 6-7 comparative politics courses. Very few students who pass the exam have taken fewer than 5 comparative courses. The Exam The exam includes both a written and an oral component. The written component, which takes the form of a 24-hour take-home test, counts for 65% of the grade.

    REPRESENTAÇÃO: PALAVRAS, INSTITUIÇÕES E IDÉIAS* Hanna Fenichel Pitkin As palavras e o mundo mudam juntos, mas não em sim- ples correlação direta. Quando imaginamos a introdução de uma palavra nova, tendemos a pensar em exemplos tais como o explorador dando nome a um local recém- descoberto, ou o químico preparando uma substância recém-descoberta ou recém-criada. Mas esses exemplos são profundamente enganosos, pois a maioria das palavras não são nomes; e os seres humanos podem, com a mesma facilidade, discursar sobre o que existe e o que não existe. No campo dos fenômenos sociais, culturais e políticos, a relação entre as palavras e o mundo é ainda mais com- plexa, pois esses fenômenos são constituídos pela conduta humana, que é profundamente formada pelo que as pesso- as pensam e dizem, por palavras.
