In this episode, VP Josh Bowman interviews professor Ryan Holston on his new book, Tradition and the Deliberative Turn: A Critique of Contemporary Democratic Theory (SUNY Press, 2023)
https://sunypress.edu/Books/T/Tradition-and-the-Deliberative-Turn
We address modern notions of democratic theory and deliberation and consider how the work of Hans Georg Gadamer might inspire a revision or even a rejection of key insights by influential democratic theorists. A return to the wisdom of tradition and notions of friendship may offer a more promising ground on which to build a non-ideological and just democracy.

What Barfield Thought: An Introduction to the Work of Owen Barfield (Cascade Books)
https://wipfandstock.com/9781666736762/what-barfield-thought/
Owen Barfield (1898–1997) was a close friend of C.S. Lewis and a member of The Inklings, a group which also included J.R.R. Tolkien and Charles Williams among other literary luminaries. He was a prolific author throughout his long life, and was known as a philosopher of the “evolution of consciousness,” a great reader of S.T. Coleridge, and a central figure sharing the movement called “anthroposophy” with the English-speaking world. Visit his literary estate to learn more: https://www.owenbarfield.org/
