Why Democrats Should Be Committed to Future Generations
Dialogue 62 (3):459-474 (2023)
Abstract
In response to the claim that democracies are inherently short-termist, this article argues for a new way to understand them as being committed to future generations. If taking turns among rulers and ruled is a normative idea inherent to the concept of democracy, then such turn-taking commits democrats to a fair turn with future generations.Author's Profile
