Abstract:
|
Deliberative democracy has the potential to address the pressing issues of environmental degradation by bringing an ecologically rational form of reasoning to political and administrative decision making (Baber and Bartlett, 1999, 2001). Three fundamental approaches to deliberative democracy are represented by the work of Jurgen Habermas, John Rawls, and James Bohman. In this paper we attempt to bridge some of the gap between theory and practice in the classic question of the role of scientific and technical experts in the policy process. In particular, we will suggest that the ways deliberative democracy theory handles the problem of rhetoric are directly applicable to the problem of expertise in policy making and administrative power. To wit: the expertise problem is a special case of the rhetoric problem. |
