Building on the ideas of Gregory Baum and Kari Polanyi Levitt, whose contributions as public intellectuals committed to social justice span almost five decades, Reclaiming Democracy features discussions by eminent scholars about social ethics, political economy, and democracy. Culled from the papers presented at a symposium at Concordia University in their honour, Reclaiming Democracy traces their influence on critical social thought. The essays, which focus in part on the Caribbean, provide an intellectual perspective to ground the growing opposition to dominant institutions by social movements struggling against injustice around the world.
