    Dialogue Diary > Intellectual Public

    In my dreams, at least, politicians, activists, reporters, and social theorists always would get the public space to offer the most intellectually rich context for the most pressing aspects of their present thinking. This “Intellectual Public” series seeks to provide one modest outlet for such untimely explorations by some of our most timely elected officials, journalists, multidisciplinary public intellectuals.
