What is the nature of political judgement? What endows us, as human beings, with the ability to make reasonable judgements about human affairs and to judgethe common world we share with others? By what means to we secure validity for our judgements? These questions, central as they are to any reflection on politics have rarely been addressed in a systematic way. This book examines Kant’s concept of taste and Aristotle’s concept of prudence, as well as recent works of political philosophy by Arendt, Gadamer and Habermas, all crucially influenced by Kant and Aristotle.
