Carole Pateman on Theories - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 502 Theory/Political Theory/Pateman: Pateman is part of a scientific and socio-political counter-movement to the positivist mainstream in the 1960s, which Held calls "New Left" (1). Pateman intends a) to revalue the history of ideas as an inspiration for contemporary democracy theory, b) to replace the tendentially elite-oriented concept of democracy with a participatory one and c) to rehabilitate normative interests of knowledge and emancipatory concerns as scientifically justified and socio-politically necessary. >Democratic theory, >Participation. 1.
