A radical democratic polity might provide a discursive framework more supportive of a green political agenda than that provided by a liberal democracy. Four key themes of a radical democratic project are: the development of a richer public discourse involving a more active, participatory practice of citizenship; the inclusion of group difference within the public domain whilst at the same time maintaining a commitment to working towards 'the common good'; the renewal of those forms of community life that enable the formation of persons with strong moral commitment yet respectful of difference; and the explication of the moral sources of radical democracy through peaceable dialogue between rival versions of the good life. These themes are then applied to the following key issues of green politics: the development of a morally grounded vision of sustainable development; the balancing of green political activities at the 'centre' and the 'periphery' of political life; the recovery of the communitarian basis of an 'ecological self; and the creation of a 'frame reflexive' dialogue about the moral foundations of both democracy and a respect for the natural world. |
