Book symposium: On the Side of Angels

Over at my other blog, I’m hosting a book symposium this week that I think will be of interest to Public Reason readers.  It’s on Nancy Rosenblum’s new book On the Side of Angels; she is taking part along with respondents including Patrick Deneen, Henry Farrell, Mara Marin, Andrew Rehfeld, Melissa Schwartzberg, Nadia Urbinati, and me.  I describe and introduce the symposium at http://jacobtlevy.blogspot.com/2009/01/on-side-of-angels-symposium.html , and the whole thing can be found at http://jacobtlevy.blogspot.com/search/label/Rosenblum-symposium .  At this posting, Rosenblum’s first entries are up; the first responses will be posted this afternoon.  Commentators are welcome and encouraged to take part in the conversation that unfolds over the course of the week.

I expect most will also know that Chris Bertram is organising a reading group on Cohen’s Rescuing Justice and Equality at academic ur-blog Crooked Timber. John Holbo also has a post up there.

Great group on NR’s book, Jacob! I am reading the entries with interest– thanks for organizing it!
