    The Kerf of Sound This dissertation explores "kerf"—the width of material removed by a saw blade—as a conceptual framework linking material-driven experiences in instrument making to philosophical questions of absence and presence. The text extends kerf beyond a physical consequence of woodcraft towards a suggestive, destructive parameter that connects dual creative research: "composing instruments" made from wood and wire, and composing "Tinnitus Music" in response to hearing impairment.

    The EuroPolis deliberative poll

    No full text
    This special issue focuses on EuroPolis, a unique experiment in 'deliberative democracy' at the European level convened in Brussels soon before the 2009 European Parliamentary Elections. A European wide random sample of the 27 member countries at the time was gathered to deliberate about two key issues-climate change and immigration as well as its voting intentions. The articles in the special issue focus on this Deliberative Poll, both quantitatively and qualitatively to assess what it tells us about ambitious versions of a 'European wide public sphere.' Can the citizens of Europe deliberate together across all the barriers of language and nationality? Can there be a credible process of European wide 'public will formation' about substantive policy issues and about voting

    Review : Joseph Fishkin and William E. Forbath, the anti-oligarchy constitution

    No full text
    Shielding the market from the masses: economic liberalism and the european union In The Anti-Oligarchy Constitution, Joseph Fishkin and William E. Forbath offer a road map for modern-day progressives concerned with ever-increasing economic inequality. The US Constitution does not simply permit wealth redistribution, they argue, it demands it. Fishkin and Forbath seek to revive long-forgotten constitutional discourse that views constraining concentrations of wealth as necessary for the preservation of a democratic republic, which should inform how every provision of the Constitution is interpreted. This is what Fishkin and Forbath describe as the “democracy of opportunity” tradition
