Abstract


This article reviews Deliberative Democracy in Asia, a book published in 2022 by Routledge and edited by Baogang He, Micheal Breen and James Fishkin. The review is divided into four sections: a short introduction about deliberative democracy, an analysis of the structure of the book, an investigation of the most important topics addressed in the work and a conclusion, stating whether the book is worth reading or not, and why. Throughout the review, of course, the strengths and the weaknesses of the book are underlined. The former particularly relate to the contents of the book and to some aspects of its structure, while the latter specially concern the work's comparative approach, which looks a bit weaker than expected.
