This 1998 book provides a sophisticated alternative account of the role of the intellectual in democracy, both in civilising political contestation and subverting complacent consensus. A diverse set of intellectuals in action is analysed, from Socrates in Athens to Central European political dissidents, from Malcolm X to Toni Morrison in America.
