John Dryzek is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences in
Australia, former Head of the Departments of Political Science at
the Universities of Oregon and Melbourne and the Social and
Political Theory Program at ANU, and former editor of the
Australian Journal of Political Science. Working in both political
theory and empirical social science, he is best known for his
contributions in the areas of democratic theory and practice and
environmental
politics. One of the instigators of the 'deliberative turn' in
democratic theory, he has published four books in this area with
Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press, and Polity
Press. His work in
environmental politics ranges from green political philosophy to
studies of environmental discourses and movements, and he has
published three books in this area. He is Australian Research
Council Federation Fellow and Professor in the Centre for
Deliberative Democracy and Global Governance at the Australian
National University.
Dryzek has again provided eloquent, powerful and provocative
arguments which are sure to stimulate additonal interest and new
thinking about the task of establishing and maintaining effective
deliberative democratic governance in environments characterised by
significant political, cultural, religious, moral and philosophical
diversity.
