About
This book presents a novel and compelling thesis about technological risk, liberalism, and policy making in liberal societies. This book treats especially the concepts of consent, community, authority, rights, responsibility, identity, and political participation. The meaning of each of these ideas has been altered by modern technological risks, and coping with risk will require that liberal societies redefine what these most basic concepts and political principles are to mean in political practice and policy making. This book will interest philosophers and political theorists as well as policy analysts.
