"As Meyer lays out his case, it becomes clear that this book is the product of a skilful mind." Democratiya "The theory of social democracy developed by Professor Thomas Meyer marks an impressive, thought-provoking advance in the broader theory of democracy." Jurgen Habermas "This is an excellent book to give to students to make them think about the differences between various types of social democracy, also about the difference between liberal and social democracy. It is likely to prove highly influential and to be a benchmark for future debates." Andrew Gamble, University of Cambridge
